Unconventional hookah place

I’ve been to a few Gulf countries before and I absolutely love that kind of Arabic environment. Everything about it. And muslim people (guys especially. Due to their hotness. Duh). So finding a place like that where I live in India… I thought it was impossible. Until I found out that a particular area of my city Pune is just filled with all these hookah parlours with Muslim people everywhere. Awesome!

So I caught hold of my boyfriend and told him I’m sick of going to the same nearby places he keeps taking me to. He thought about it for a moment and said we should go to something called Lazy Pipes on NIBM road. We got there, and it was just…I mean there were holes in the sofas for god’s sake! Why is that place so popular anyway!

We started climbing down the stairs again but we saw this other place called KULBA in the same building which looked pretty decent. We got inside and saw all these hot Arabic people sitting around watching TV. It almost looked like somebody’s house! Until the waiter came to take our order. We asked him which hookah was the best and ordered exactly that. It tasted kinda like blackcurrant but it turned out to be simply amazing! And there is no way you could find such awesome hookah anywhere in the city just for Rs.130!

Apart from that we did try a few interesting things like Afghani green tea (which turned out to be some tea you can get in boxes at the supermarket. Boo!), some sweet lassi (ok-ok) which my boyfriend spilled all over the table like the klutz that he is and this big dry chicken thing which was also nice. The hookah was really cheap so we could easily have ordered some interesting looking Afghani breads, but it was rather a risk and I had to get home haha.

So here are the details people, you should definitely go there for some quiet time with a few hookah buddies. You even get showerma (that Arabic chicken sandwich in case u don’t know) and all that.
