Last weekend, I had the pleasure of visiting Brahmin Homes, a charming tappi merchant located in the heart of Nairobi. It has been a while since I indulged in handcrafted tappi, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of delightful!
As I approached the store around 3 PM, I was greeted by the rustic storefront adorned with beautiful tappi designs that promised a taste experience unlike any other. The atmosphere was inviting, with the warm sun illuminating the colorful arrays of tappi available for purchase.
I was particularly excited to try the Traditional Tappi, which is a must-have according to many reviews. Priced at just KES 500, this treat did not disappoint. The blend of flavors was exquisite and reminded me of the tappi my grandmother used to make. It’s amazing how food can take you back to cherished memories!
While exploring the store, I had the pleasure of chatting with James, one of the attendants there. His knowledge about the different kinds of tappi was impressive. He patiently guided me through various options, and his passion for the products truly stood out. I appreciated how he took the time to understand what I was looking for and made excellent recommendations.
I also decided to try the Spicy Pepper Tappi, which was a personal favorite mentioned in several reviews. At a price of KES 600, this item brought a fantastic kick to the palate. The spices were perfectly balanced, making it flavorful without overwhelming the taste buds.
As I savored these tappi, I couldn't help but notice how the ambiance of Brahmin Homes elevated the experience. The cozy seating arrangements allowed me to relax as I enjoyed my snacks, making it the ideal casual hangout or quick stop for a delicious bite.
I ended my visit with the Sweet Honey Tappi, which at KES 550, was a delightful way to conclude my taste adventure. Sweet yet mildly flavored, this tappi is a great option for those who prefer something a little lighter.
Overall, my visit to Brahmin Homes was filled with vibrant flavors and warm service. Whether you’re a tappi lover or a curious newcomer, this place in Nairobi is certainly worth a visit. The combination of affordable prices, friendly staff like James, and a wide variety of delicious tappi makes it a top choice for anyone craving authentic tappi.
As I left, I couldn’t help but think about when I’d return to explore more of their offerings. If you find yourself in Nairobi, stop by Brahmin Homes—you won’t regret it!
