Selous Ngalawa Camp provides varieties of meals if you book all inclusive with. If you are coming with tour operators, you can have a kitchen and cook your own meals. The breakfast is a buffet consisting of hot cinnamon rolls, eggs and toast, served with coffee or tea, and juices.

The lunch is a buffet or a simple packed lunch of sandwiches, fruit, and cakes if you're going out on a full-day drive. The dinner is a three-course affair, often taken out on the terrace under the stars weather permitting. The starters are served at your table, think tempura vegetables or an onion soup with warm bread rolls.

The main course is a buffet of various meats, pasta, curries, and vegetarian dishes. The dessert is a sponge cake with chocolate sauce, a little bit bland, although it's hard to get a lot of ingredients so far out in the bush. If you're lucky, the Bushmen may entertain you while you eat and during the walking safari with singing and dancing.
