my complicated life

before hubby left for his second shift at work, he informed me that we will eat out tonight. with that, i need not prepare dinner of any kind. buti naman, hehe. i was spared! or was it, he was spared??? ngahaha.

it was around 8 pm when he called up and he wants us to meet in Mubashir. it's a small resto right around the block that offers arabic specialties. he ordered hommos with meat while i ordered mixed grills of lamb, kofta and a pita-like bread with meat fillings. he asked me to taste hommos. i obliged but told him that i am not fond of eating the said appetizer. i have tasted it once but never liked it. that was, when i was still very new here in UAE. however, seeing him eat it with such gusto has made me crave for the different taste as well. now, i'm a hommos fan as well. hehe. inggetera kasi.

hommos was made from chick peas. it has a bitter sweet taste and was topped with olive oil when served. it is usually served with hot unleavened bread and is eaten by carefully dipping the bread into the sauce. yum, yum!! ;)
