On 05/08/24, I visited Murî a new coffee shop that specialized in Kurdish drinks and treats. This shop is on busy University Dr and parking was a challenge.
The shop was once a small older craftsman house converted to a cafe to accommodate seating for visitors. Outdoor and indoor seating available and my posh pooch Fendi and I were cordially welcomed by the owners.
I love global travel and am open to learning about All cultures and ethnic foods. I've never traveled to Kurdistan and the surrounding areas and was excited to try new to Me drinks and treats. The pastry beautifully displayed were created in house but almost all were french inspired and not Kurdish as I had hoped. The owners were eager to please and offered to make some and wanted to contact Me directly for my information to send Me an invitation but since I prefer to be a private person, I gracefully declined to release my contact info for their invitation. I will call to inquire if the Kurdish pastries are available before I visit.
The Kurdish chai tea was served Hot and poured from a unique decanter seemed appealing. Accompanied with a small brass dish with rock sugar in the raw was an added delight. Because of time constraints, I agreed to sit just briefly to enjoy the peaceful ambiance inside with a view of wall decor of colorful tapestry, floor rugs, brass, copper decanters/pitchers and also the view of the patio sprinkled with potted plants and blooming florals.
To my delight, one of the owners, was the server and he wore gloves! The whole setting was aesthetically pleasing, calm and clean. BTW, their Yelp page shows Zero violations from the Health Department, and that alone speaks volumes for Me and will encourage my return.
Until I try some unique Kurdish pastries, I cannot comment on how the treats tasted but All look spectacular and appealing. Again, I look outward to authentic unique Kurdish treats to pair with the Kurdish chai tea.
The hot Kurdish chai tea was fragrant, soothing
and lovely. I was really able to relish the essence of this chai tea, as my palate was super clean without anything else, so I was able to focus solely on the wonderfulness of this Kurdish chai tea, which really takes the spotlight of my review. Murî is worthy of your visit. Recommend.
