Tasha's – Café Review | Condé Nast Traveler
"Okay, you’ve just walked in. First impressions? Tashas exudes a calm, coastal luxe vibe that draws café-seekers in droves. The white furniture and umbrellas on the alfresco deck area capture your attention first, while the timber tables, cane chairs, and statement ceiling inside further up the appeal. The South African owner is renowned in the region, with cafes in Dubai , too. Who else was there? This ever-bustling cafe is as popular with business people who work in the Al Bateen district as it is with visiting tourists and Emiratis. The raison d’être : the coffee. How was it? The coffee menu includes espressos, ristrettos, cappuccinos, Greek coffees, and flavored lattes, including a sweet Spanish latte made with condensed milk. Was there food, too, and if so, worth getting? An extensive food menu covers breakfast, sandwiches, rich, meaty entrees like lemon chicken and steak tagliata, pastas, quesadillas, and salads. How about the staff: what did you think? Staffers are attentive and welcoming. They know the menu and are happy to help. Who should go here? The cafe's waterfront locale makes it an enjoyable spot to grab a drink, especially during the cooler months when you can post up outside with a laptop or newspaper." - Melinda Healy
