Balboosta

M. was a bit jealous I had ordered the shakshouka, she's such a sucker for lunch dishes with eggs. But the real star of our lunch was the plate of hummus and pita bread. Balboosta's hummus is refined and elegant, a bit like the restaurant itself. We had to order an additional piece of pita to keep munching away at it, but it was well worth the extra buck fifty.
