Burundian food and drinks are unique

Burundian food and drinks are distinctive, and they are one of the Things About Burundi You Should Know. Burundi is located in East Africa and boasts a landscape that includes mountains, savannas, and agricultural plains, as well as woods in the vicinity of rivers and lakes. Agriculture covers 80 percent of the country's land area and includes coffee, tea, corn, beans, and manioc. Burundi cuisine is particularly symbolic of African culinary culture since it includes beans, which are the backbone of Burundi food, exotic fruits (mostly bananas), plantains, sweet potatoes, cassava, peas, maize, and cereals such as corn and wheat. An important consideration when analyzing Burundian cuisine is the country's economic situation: Burundians typically consume handmade meals from homemade vessels that are also used for drinking, transporting water, and storing grain.

Lake Tanganyika is home to a diversity of fish that are not found anywhere else. Tanganyika is home to Sangala (also known as the captain), Mukeke, and Ndagala, which are only found in Burundi. Burundi also has some traditional cuisine and beer, which may be purchased at Bujumbura's Musé Vivant stores. It is a tourist attraction near the National Radio and Television Centre where visitors may see animals and sip a local beer. Sorghum beer, honey liquor, and banana wine may be sampled at Musé Vivant in Bujumbura. They are all produced in a traditional manner and served in traditional calabashes.
