Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting a charming tappi merchant located on Chiromo Ln in Nairobi, Kenya. I had heard quite a bit about their exceptional offerings, particularly their renowned sweet snacks. As I stepped into the store around 3 PM, the warm and inviting aroma of freshly made delicacies enveloped me, enticing me to explore further.
One of the first products that caught my eye was the chocolate tappi, which is a delightful treat made with the finest ingredients. Priced at just KSh 150, it’s the perfect way to satisfy any sweet tooth. I’ve read countless reviews praising its rich flavor and delightful texture, and I couldn’t resist trying one myself. After one bite, I understood the hype; the smooth chocolate blended perfectly with the chewy dough.
While I was savoring the tappi, I couldn’t help but notice the friendly and attentive service provided by one of the attendants, Jane. She is often mentioned in reviews, and it’s easy to see why. Jane greeted me with a warm smile and shared some recommendations, making my experience even more enjoyable. It’s always refreshing to meet someone so passionate about their work, and her enthusiasm certainly added to my visit.
Returning my attention to the menu, I decided to try the cheese tappi as well, which reviewers have described as a must-try item. It was priced at KSh 200—a small investment for such a flavorful experience. The cheese had that perfect melt-in-your-mouth quality, and the spices added a lovely kick to it. I could see why locals often visit this place, as they have managed to balance affordability with quality.
Another product that had been highly recommended in numerous online reviews is their spicy chicken tappi, which I made sure to order. At KSh 250, this was a bit on the higher side compared to the others, but every review I read touted it as “worth every shilling.” The spices were well-balanced, and the portion size was generous, leaving me satisfied yet craving more. Combine that with a comfortable setting, and you have the recipe for a great dining experience.
The charm of this tappi merchant lies not just in their products but also in how they manage to make every customer feel special—from the moment you step in till the moment you leave with a satisfied smile. It's not often that you find such friendly service paired with delicious food at such reasonable prices.
As I wrapped up my visit, I couldn’t help but appreciate the quality of the tappi offerings and the staff's dedication to customer service. If you find yourself on Chiromo Ln in Nairobi, I highly recommend making a stop to indulge in their tasty tappi. It was certainly a delightful afternoon spent among the vibrant flavors and warm company.
