Hookah's cultural background includes wise friends patiently passing the hose of fruity and light smoke for hours as they discuss world problems, philosophy and art. While your Saturday night is most likely a little less serious, hookah is still a great way to chill out on floor pillows with a few of your closest buddies and leave smelling like you rolled in a batch of potpourri. Oasis Mediterranean Cafe has been around for four years, offering truly fragrant and tasty hookah in an authentic atmosphere, making it the best place to get wrapped up in the soothing smoke. While manager Mimo Rabata says that the three most popular flavors are double apple, mixed fruit and grape, SPM recommends the peach. While you're there, snack on some hummus or falafel.
