As a food enthusiast living in Nairobi, I'm always on the lookout for unique culinary experiences, and my recent visit to Qakes by Qui did not disappoint! Nestled in the heart of the city, this charming tappi merchant offers an array of delectable treats that are sure to tantalize your taste buds.
I visited on a sunny Saturday afternoon, eager to explore their menu. The atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy, and the smell of freshly baked goods enveloped me as I stepped inside. I was greeted by friendly staff, and the service was impeccable, thanks to an attentive waiter named David, who was ever so willing to recommend some of their best-sellers.
One of the highlights of my visit was the signature tappi, priced at KES 150. Immediately, I could understand why this delicacy had garnered rave reviews. The tappi was light and fluffy, with a perfect balance of sweetness that didn’t overpower the senses. Each bite melted in my mouth, leaving me craving more. David was spot-on with his suggestion, and I truly appreciated his enthusiasm for the dish!
Next up was the chocolate fudge cake, available for KES 300. Oh, what a treat! The rich, velvety chocolate paired beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, creating a dessert experience that was nothing short of heavenly. I could see why many customers have praised this item, describing it as "the best dessert in Nairobi." It was the perfect end to my meal and worth every shilling!
Another item that caught my attention was the fruit tart, which was beautifully presented and priced at KES 250. Not only was it visually appealing, but the burst of fresh fruit atop the creamy custard filling was refreshing—ideal for the warm Nairobi weather. This tart seemed to be a crowd favorite, and I quickly understood its popularity.
Overall, my experience at Qakes by Qui was delightful. With its exceptional service, especially from David, and an enticing menu, I found myself wishing I could try everything on offer. I left with my stomach full and a smile on my face, feeling that my visit had been a sweet escape.
