I have discovered my new favorite tea house!
I was in Columbus for the Ohio Tea Festival and I searched google for ethnic tea places and East African popped up.
They have only been in business for a few months. I instantly fell in love with the tea and food...and the owners. These owners were so kind and welcoming.
4359 Morse Road
They have a menu with a nice variety of drinks. I had never been to a Somalian restaurant, I was excited to try things. It all looked so delicious and sounded amazing.
I was happy to see that they seemed busy. While I was there, there were lots of people coming and going. I really hope they do well and thrive.
I had crepes, samosa, iced tea, and Shaah.
It was all so scrumptious I could not get enough.
The samosas were so great- I actually added some to go!!
The shaah (chai) is incredibly delicious. This chai is made with great spices and evaporated milk.
The decor is beautiful too. Everything is light and bright and clean.
Some of the desserts that you can purchase.
Everything about this place was great! The food, the tea, the service, all 5 teacups!
The owner was kind enough to give me some of her shaah to take home!! I told her I was writing this recipe book, and I wanted to include Somalian Chai, shaah.
The owners husband said his wife worked 3 years to create this recipe.
Shaah is a bunch of spices. Spices-cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger.
Shaah is a cousin to Indian chai and Yemeni adeni.
To make the tea I used black tea as the base, some of the shaah mix, sugar, and evaporated milk.
This tea is so delicious! The spice is spicey and I love it!

1 Peter 4:10-11, ESV
10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: 11 whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
