What I wrote thereFold it away
Qahwah is the Arabic word for coffee, and Qahwah House is a Yemeni coffee shop in Brooklyn. Serving authentic and organically sourced coffee directly from Yemen, this coffee shop provides a change of pace to the usual big-box coffee shops.
The smell of freshly roasted coffee is guaranteed to embrace you the moment you walk through the door at this charming Brooklyn coffee shop. If you’re interested, there is a cool map that shows the worldwide distribution of coffee stemming from the Port of Mocha in Yemen.
Qahwah House offers traditional Yemeni delights, as well as your comforting coffee shop staples. Ordering the Khaliat Alnahl, (a cheese. I honestly could not tell you how I lived life this long without it.)
