Kampala offers you a wide choice of dishes ranging from Italian Pizza to traditional african specialities. But i guess ya more interested in Uganda's own kitchen. Each region has its own local cuisine. The most common traditional foods are green bananas (Matooke), sweet potatoes, cassava and yams, normally served with beef or chicken stew, groundnut (peanut) sauce, beans or peas. You should also try the various snacks like: Chapati, Samosas (meat or vegetable pie) and Mandazi (similar to Donuts)

Kampala has plenty of good restaurants - Chinese, Indian, Mexican, Burgers, Pizza, etc. Personally, the Indian restaurants are some of my favorites. The BBQ's at the Sheraton and Fairway Hotels are great, too. Near Akamba
  buslines and the crafts market (which is a must visit) there are a couple of good Indian places. In Mbarara (on the way to QENP or Kabale) the Coffee Shop is a suprisingly good place. Just as you enter Masaka (on the road to Mbarara), there is a little food stand next to the gas station - I think its called Highway Takeaway - it has great food, especially their fries.

Kabale has the semi-famous Hot Loaf Bakery, which is a good place for pasteries and mini-pizzas. I also recommend the local fried pork places (one is next door to the Visitor's Hotel - sorry I can't remember the name). Main links of entertainment are given bolow:
