Hookah Bars NYC- Cafe Khufu Part 2

Cafe Khufu is a shisha and hookah bar located in the east village on east 3rd street between first and second avenues. Honestly i was not impressed by the hookah or the shisha quality of this bar. They do not serve alcohol and the one drink minimum is kind of annoying. i really dont know how this place stays in business. The vibe is very mellow and the service is ok. There is an Egyptian vibe in this place with egyptian artwork that covers the walls. The walls have a makeshift cheesy feel as they are painted to look like they are large stones from a pyramid or something. The hookah s that they use are in ok condition but they certainly do not have specific flavors for certain hookas. they place was pretty much desolate so i gues that was pretty authentic like i was in the desert or something. The Shisha flavors were average although they did not carry too many of them... The brand they carry is soex shisha which is an herbal shisha with no nicotine? how could this be. im not sure i got the correct info on their brand of shisha. i think that i definitely got a buzz from the tobacco that i smoke this night and i find it hard to believe that the shisha that is used in the hookas in Cafe Khufu is herbal no nicotine alternative. They do have belly dancing at this hookah bar once a week and that sounds pretty cool! unfortunately i do not think that i will be going back to this bar. as i said in the last post, the hookah and the shisha became unbearably sweet within about 15 minutes of smoking their hooka. the upside to their operation is the lemon wood coals which provide an authenitc hookah smoking experience. Have Fun!
