OK, so I don’t like Kaya. I’m not saying their food is putrid, or that their atmosphere is not delightful, but I think I have decided I don’t like it. I realize that everyone else in the world loves Kaya, but I’m going to go against the grain. For me, Kaya has just been a series of disappointments - I really can’t say that I’ve ever had anything I’ve loved there. And this isn’t one of those cases where I’ve only been once or twice. I’ve been to Kaya a lot, and not only was it better 5 years ago than it is now, but also I don’t think it was that amazing to begin with. Kaya, you have to do more than just use an interesting ingredient – you have to live up. (more…)
