WHEN YOU EAT A MEAL IS A WAY TO GET EXPERIENCE THE CULTURE OF THE PLACES YOU VISIT
A journey into Dubai’s past could begin through the door of a quaint tea house in the historic district of Al Fahidi, once known as Al Bastakiya. Upon entering the Arabian Tea House (although veterans would still prefer to call it the Basta Art Café), you have been transported to the old days, in an authentic style with turquoise benches, white rattan chairs, lace curtains and beautiful flowers, enjoying the Your cup of gahwa (traditional Arabic coffee) in the shade of an old tree and the languid air fades around you, dreamlike, as if it were always afternoon. You sit here savoring your cup of gahwa (meaning coffee in Arabic, but also used to refer to tea in the context of a tea house) under a large old tree bearing small apples, you listen to the birdsong and marvel at the architecture of the stone house with wind towers that once belonged to a tawash, or pearl merchant.
This old world charm is one of the few authentic examples Dubai has of a past life, when its people would meet and take refuge in teahouses, not just to escape the heat of the day, but to bond, relax and unwind. talk about business. It opened in 1997 and remains an oasis of peace and tranquility where tourists and locals come over and over again, to travel into the city’s past and explore its cultural heritage. Dubai Tourism cites the tea house as a cultural landmark, and recently both Michelin-starred culinary expert and author Geoffrey Zakarian and TV star Martha Stewart visited the tea house, praising it in their blogs and social media platforms.
As Dubai grew, the tea house moved beyond Al Fahidi, opened new branches in the UAE – Sharjah, The Mall Jumeirah, Jumeirah Archaeological Site, a branch in Egypt – Dubai House and a branch in Montenegro. “It’s time to take the experience to other parts of the world. Being traditional is not something to avoid, we should be proud of who we are.”
