The Hummus Bar and Grill is my favorite; others like Itzik Hagodol nearby (yes, it's a branch of the Israeli one). However, we haven't yet reached the apotheosis, "Abu ". And the only way we can get Karawan Tahina to make "the best" is from an Israeli who charges $19 including shipping for a regular sized container. Won't someone import and distribute Karawan in Los Angeles? With all the Israelis here, as well as American Hummus feinschmeckers, it should do very well. It does, however, need a Hechsher for the US Jewish market. The Hebrew letters for "Kosher" on the label aren't enough. Also if some kind soul has pried the real recipe from one of the Abus and wants to post it here, that would be most welcome. I have about 50 different recipes including the one in this blog, but keep searching. While on the subject of Hummus, a local place in Westwood, Alcazar Express, serves their (North Lebanese) Chef's Hummus warm--first time I know of for that presentation.

Costco has something close. Make your own Humus, that's the only way. The Sabra or tribe Humus do not fit the Israeli taste.

Make your own Humus, that’s the only way.

Packaged hummus could never replace REAL hummus and Sabra is no different. You’re joking right? Packaged hummus could never replace REAL hummus and Sabra is no different.
