Though peaceful compared to downtown, excellent international dining options remain easily accessible.

Street vendors line sidewalks selling samosas and mandazi, creating an authentic slice of Tanzanian urban life. Major bus terminals make exploring other parts of Dar es Salaam a breeze. Restaurants cater mostly to the office crowd with Tanzanian staples like ugali and nyama choma. Small markets sell everyday necessities and mobile accessories rather than tourist trinkets.
