Coffee shops are designed for white foreigners, to give them a reminder of their life back home. It's like those ugali & nyam chom joints abroad, designed for diasporans to feel at home.

So if you go to an Artcaffe and feel left out, it is by design. Endelea kunang'ana tu ati una right, mi naona una wrong.

Nothing could be further from the truth...you nailed it.
Those of us who have travelled majuu several times Will tell you that those arte cafes are nothing kule majuu even in China.
The number of times i have visited those kenyan based coffee houses are kess than the fingers on my left hand.
Its the wannabe Nairobians who frequent them.

If am not wrong,I heard artcaffe is owned by israelis and knowing how they despise nyeuthis I will stick to my lane. I.e. "reke marie" and "magomano".

The only thing disturbing me is why Jews of all people, having suffered the worst of racial profiling and discrimination could also turn out to be the worst racists on earth.

Am hoping @alpha doesn't see my post.

You are wrong. It was sold to Java. Fyi it has a bad reputation especially their original branch in Westlands. It is alleged that hamburglar and his friends hang there.
