All of us lucky enough to have hung out in Mexico (or the likes of SF’s Mission District) know that what we Americans call “Mexican food” … ain’t. Well, I’m in Dubai right now—and can report that what we call “hommous” … ain’t either! True Middle Eastern Hommous and Arabic Mezzeh are delights of the first order; Shaw’s hommous (New England-style Hommous? Oxymoron?) … and I’ve no doubt they mean well … comes from another planet, if not galaxy.
