As a local in Nairobi, I’m always on the lookout for hidden gems that offer unique products. Last weekend, I decided to visit Ellie's Realty, a delightful tappi merchant I had heard intriguing things about. On a sunny Saturday afternoon, I made my way there, excited to experience everything they had to offer.
Upon entering Ellie's Realty, I was immediately greeted by the friendly staff. The ambiance was warm and inviting, filled with the smell of fresh tappi wafting through the air. The shop was clean, well-organized, and showcased a variety of tappi options, each looking more delicious than the last.
One of the standout features of this merchant is definitely the wide array of tappi flavors. On the recommendation of a fellow customer, I decided to try the original coconut tappi, priced at just Ksh 250. The moment I took a bite, I was blown away by the perfect blend of coconut and spices, creating a rich, delectable taste. The texture was incredibly satisfying, and I found it hard to stop at just one piece!
Another item I could not resist was the spicy chili tappi. Priced at Ksh 300, it was packed with flavor and had the right amount of kick to it. If you enjoy a bit of heat in your snacks, this one is definitely for you. I chatted with one of the attendants, a lovely woman named Sarah, who mentioned that the spicy chili tappi has been a customer favorite for its bold flavor profile.
While I was there, I also picked up a nutty tappi for a sweet finish, which cost Ksh 200. This tappi was perfectly crunchy, adorned with various nuts providing an excellent texture. It was a great complement to the other flavors I had tried, and I loved the combination of savory and sweet.
The prices throughout the store were incredibly reasonable, making it easy to explore different flavors without breaking the bank. I visited around 3 PM, and the place was buzzing with customers who were just as enthusiastic about the tappi as I was. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of tappi or a newcomer like myself, there’s something for everyone at Ellie's Realty.
Turns out, afternoons are the best times to visit, as Sarah mentioned that they often have fresh batches of tappi coming out around lunch and early evening. The atmosphere was vibrant, and other customers seemed genuinely happy, sharing their own favorites and even recommending new flavors to each other.
Overall, my experience at Ellie's Realty was fantastic! From the friendly service to the diverse and high-quality tappi offerings, I found my new favorite spot in Nairobi. I highly recommend stopping by if you ever find yourself in the area. You won’t be disappointed!
