About this spot
Ali Karawan – Abu Hassan in Neve Tzedek serves hummus — not the cold stuff from a tub. Warm, silky, drizzled with olive oil, scooped with fresh pita. Israelis take hummus deadly seriously, and this place earns the devotion.
💡 Tips before you go
- Good hummus is served warm. Cold hummus is not real hummus.
- Scoop with pita, never a fork. When the pita runs out, order more.
- Masabacha (chunky, with whole chickpeas) is the hummus lover's hummus
