Eating goes

Benny's hummus: When the hand of the north comes to Tel Aviv once a week

Because good urban wiping is rare, but urban wiping that is also fun to sit in is something that must be written about

Good Tel Aviv chickpeas are extremely rare and endangered.

A good Tel Aviv chickpea that is also fun to sit on is a unicorn

136.5 km separates the courtyard of the Zrubchik family home in northern Neve Ziv and Tel Aviv's Dizengoff Square. From green-nature to gray-rat.

"My son's chickpeas" move between these two points with impressive virtuosity.

in some ways, it is not clear what they need it for at all.Why not set up a northern hummus anchorage, a place of pilgrimage with continuous, one-way traffic, from Gush Dan to Plate? On the second Saturday that all this business elevates itself to reality, everything is completely clear.

Want to keep it simple?

Good Tel Aviv chickpeas are so rare and endangered (Jaffa, you are not considered for that matter).

A good Tel Aviv chickpea that is also fun to sit on is a unicorn, a dragon-targarini, a big pot that only a few have been able to see with their own eyes in recent years, and build legends and myths on.

This is a place that is not "eating going", but eating drinking sitting eating eating drinking maybe going

"My Son's Chickpeas" rests on my son's steady hand and the sparkling eyes of Rom and May, my son's sons.

It started as any good food is supposed to start - at home, every Saturday morning - continued as an attempt to figure out what's really in this hand (and in this pot) and is now making a big step south, with a pop-up (of course) Saturdays that also started as an attempt, The first as something to go for with all your might.

The location is ideal.

La Market's 'La Bar' has been thriving for years as a successful and worthy, sane and modest place, and Shabbat's waking hours in the first place occupy it with closed doors.

This collaboration, then, is a smart synergy, but also an introduction to the worldview of all involved - a place that is not "eat-go-go", but eat-drink-sit-eat-drink-maybe-go.

Non-casting and non-disabling.

It is very difficult to finish dishes of this kind without longing for a snack, but here they have succeeded

The menu maintains the ideas simply and efficiently. The first part is dedicated to chickpeas of course, with a "son" version and a regular version, with grains and meat. The middle is things of "a la bar", from the worlds of cauliflower-salad-pottos-chips, excellent in their execution. The end, or the beginning (or the beginning and the end), is three "that come well with chickpeas" cocktails, a phrase that made me skeptical and thirsty at the same time, then sure and swaying.

Let's start with chickpeas. "My son's dish" (34 shekels, or 44 shekels with meat) is the hummus for which we gathered. This is a very light, lemony and delicious version, which comes with everything you can wipe with - thick and hot pitas, onions and quite a bit of pickles, but with a slightly higher addition of 5 shekels per egg - but requires only a fork. It is airy but present, spicy but not aggressive and mostly great in texture, including lemony chunks that would have been tossed aside everywhere else, and here complete an ideal bite.

Apart from that, there is also a "regular" hummus with grains (NIS 32) as well as a meat version (NIS 42), which illustrated the superiority of the northern hand.

The hummus itself is excellent, non-casting and non-disabling, and the meat on it, in the shape of tiny cubes, blends and adds, but does not rise.

It is very difficult to finish dishes of this kind without longing for a snack, but here they have succeeded.

All three work with chickpeas and work together.

I'm sure about the first part of the sentence.

The second part is based on a pleasant and blurry memory on the corner of the bar

The cocktail triangle (NIS 39 each) deserves a separate paragraph, both because of the ambition and investment and also because these two are indeed implemented and sustained.

"Fortuna", a takeaway on Aprol Spritz, with white lilac and bitter lemon, does what should have been done long ago for this stained and slightly disgusting cocktail - shaking and bouncing.

"Deir Balak" is the renegade version of the Moscow-Mule, including chopped cucumber and blush (though perhaps the ginger flavors should be further enhanced there), while "Hilawa" manages to take the gin for an autumnal Middle Eastern trip, with C 'Yili in the shaker, and a little rose syrup - and come back from it fresh and not sweaty.

And yes, all three work with chickpeas, and also work with each other and with the third.

I'm absolutely sure about the first part of the sentence.

The second part is based on a pleasant and somewhat blurred memory on the corner of the bar.

Slow and balanced rope ladder.

It's not clear what will happen at the end of the process with "My Son's Chickpeas."

The gap between placing a small pot on the home stove and a restaurant laden with bureaucracy in Tel Aviv is huge, and it's good that the family decided to bridge it with a slow and balanced rope ladder, and did not jump straight into the stormy waters of the local culinary swamp.

Despite popular belief, not every track here really needs to draw inspiration from Ninja Israel.

In the meantime, the schedule says Friday-North and Saturday-Tel Aviv, but there is already talk of a Friday outing to Rabin Square, and ambitions to establish and expand, develop and settle down. Outside, there are not many dilemmas - Saturday, lunch, hummus, come
