Out of all the amazing food that has come out of Middle Eastern cuisine, hummus reigns supreme by far. Not only has this spread been around since at least the 13th century, it is made in a way that is completely healthy and vegan. The main ingredients for this dip are tahini sauce and chickpeas, and although it is seemingly simple to make, perfecting it is almost a sport.

Tel Aviv, Israel has some of the best places to get hummus in the world, so don’t forget to check them out next time you’re visiting!

Hummus, hummus, humm-ussss! This combo plate of traditional family recipes, in Tel Aviv, was everything! I’ve had the great pleasure of eating my way through this incredible city. There’s so much I love about it! Food, family, energy, community and the beaches 💙 And our very first breakfast meal, was at the deliciously popular #AbuHassan for their three types of hummus 🤤🤤🤤- hummus, brown fava beans and #masabacha! Creamy, smooth texture, full flavoured and just so goooood! Served with warm pita, fresh onions to scoop up the hummus and the most delicious lemon & green chilli sauce! They’re one of Israel’s oldest, most famous and generation to generation, family run hummus restaurants, in the old town of Jaffa. It caters to a loyal following of Tel Avivians, labourers and tourists, who are either crammed in side by side or lined up at the takeaway window and it all moves at a fast and fun pace. It’s open early for breakfast and until around 15:00 or when the hummus literally runs out 😛 It was total joy to eat there and I can’t wait to go back! Check out a little more in my stories ⚡️

Located in Old Jaffa, just south of Tel Aviv, is Abu Hassan. This restaurant works at an unbelievable fast pace, which really makes it an experience just as much as a restaurant. The hummus is divine, creamy, and is at your table within minutes after ordering.

Mashawsha

This unassuming restaurant serves up some of the best hummus you will ever taste.  There is also mashausha, a type of a hummus that is made slightly different from regular Israeli hummus.

Hummus Magen David

In the heart of the Carmel Market is Hummus Magen David. Made to look like an old synagogue, this place is actually one of the best hummus joints in town.
