Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse is my favorite local restaurant. With Persian art decoration, a rose surrounded patio, and trickling fountains, Boulder Teahouse is the perfect place to start my weekend. Beside its unique and relaxing atmosphere, the teahouse is known for its value of global friendship through serving an internationally influenced menu. My favorite food from the menu is the hummus plate. It’s more than an appetizer, it’s a versatile plate that can be served at all meals. And if you are trying to avoid caffeine on the weekend, they have the best ever Italian soda.
