One of my favorite things about my trips there. First had shakshuka at The King David hotel in my first visit with a tour group, they had a buffet there, for lack of a better term. Had it, fell in love. So much flavor and it's really healthy too! And it's relatively easy to make!

    To convince him to eat it, my grandfather used to tell my brother this is made with bear's blood, knowing he'd relish the adventurous aspect.

    Please feed me. Another love of mine 🥰 one of the nice things about where I live in New York is that we have so many international family run restaurants and I have the privilege of trying amazing dishes.

    What are a grits? I mean I know what is is but I wanna ask people who eat them...what does it taste like? Is it like oatmeal? Cream of wheat? I have the same question about polenta. I can't get either of those products at any restaurants where i live but i see you can buy it in stores to make it yourself. I just looks like cream of wheat to me. I actually love cream of wheat so maybe I'd like this but it isn't something i'd want to eat with meat or fish. I'm so food-sheltered!
