Contexte culturel
In North India, it is common to say 'Bas' (Enough) alongside 'Yeh kaafi hai' to be very clear. In South Indian states, people might use local equivalents, but 'kaafi' is widely understood due to Hindi/Urdu influence. Refusing food is often seen as rude; always add 'shukriya' (thanks) to soften the refusal.
Add 'Shukriya'
Always add 'shukriya' (thanks) to make your refusal polite.
Tone Matters
Saying it with a flat tone can sound rude. Smile while saying it.
