As I stepped into Sneed, located in the heart of Nairobi, I was immediately enveloped by a warm and inviting atmosphere. It was early afternoon, around 2 PM, and the place was bustling with activity. The scent of fresh tappi filled the air, enticing me to explore the delicious offerings. My aim was to savor some of the finest items they have on their menu.
I was particularly drawn to their signature dish, the Traditional Tappi Platter, priced at a reasonable KES 800. The presentation was stunning, with beautifully arranged tappi and a selection of dips that complemented the flavors perfectly. Reviewers have raved about this dish, pointing out its rich taste and authentic preparation. After one bite, I was in culinary heaven. With a nice crunch on the outside and a soft, delightful texture inside, it was evident why this dish is a fan favorite.
While savoring the tappi, I noticed the exceptional service at Sneed. I couldn’t help but give a shoutout to James, one of the attendants who immediately greeted me and made me feel at home. His recommendations were spot on, especially when it came to the beverage selection. I decided to try the Mango Juice, which was freshly squeezed and only KES 300. It was refreshing, and James was right—it paired wonderfully with the platter.
As I continued my delightful lunch, I took a moment to appreciate the vibrant atmosphere of Sneed. The colorful decor and friendly chatter reminded me why I love visiting local spots like this in Nairobi. It’s not just about the food; it’s about the experience, and Sneed truly nails it.
In addition to the Traditional Tappi Platter and Mango Juice, I couldn’t resist trying the Spicy Tappi Bites, which are perfect for those who enjoy a kick of flavor. Priced at KES 500, these little bites are packed with spices and served steaming hot. The combination of texture and heat was exhilarating, leaving a warm sensation but never overwhelming.
Overall, my experience at Sneed was unforgettable. I left with a satisfied belly, a bright refreshing juice in hand, and a promise to return for more. The delicious food, coupled with attentive service from James, made my visit much more memorable. I highly recommend anyone in Nairobi to stop by Sneed, especially if you're looking for authentic tappi at great prices. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty platter or a quick bite, Sneed has something to satisfy your cravings. It’s a gem worth visiting!
