What it is

PikaSocial is where food is shared: reels and posts, your nightly Sahani plate, Circles for family and friends, and Tables, supper at a host’s home.

Why it’s good

  1. Every dish you see links to a way to have it: cook it, order it or book it
  2. Circles keep family recipes and plates among the people you choose
  3. Tables hosts hold a food-safety certificate, and seats are paid safely

For you

Scroll food, not noise.

The For you feed learns what your house actually eats, not what gets clicks. Every video has a recipe underneath it, and a button that turns it into supper.

Sahani in PikaSocial: tonight’s plates from your circle, side by side

Sahani

Show your plate. See your people’s.

Once a day, everyone posts what’s actually on their plate. No filters, no staging. Just your circle’s suppers, side by side.

  • One plate a night, from the people you choose
  • Keep a streak going with the family, however far apart
  • Only you see your memories; resharing is up to you
Open Sahani

Circles

Small kitchens, shared.

Private groups for family, neighbours or the office. Keep Mum’s recipes in one cookbook, plan the week’s suppers, split a big pot.

  1. Save it to tonightTap the plate on any post and it lands in your Tonight tray.
  2. Put it to a voteThe family picks from the tray before five; one veto each.
  3. One basketThe kit, the pot and the dessert come together, with one rider.

Tables

Supper, at a host’s table.

Small, ticketed dinners in Nairobi homes, hosted by cooks and chefs you follow. Strangers at seven, friends by dessert.

  • Every host is ID-checked and holds a food-safety certificate
  • Take a seat with M-Pesa; your diet note goes to the host
  • The exact address is shared the day before
