Many native hummus lovers will tell you that Abu Shukri, located centrally at the bottom of Via De La Rosa in Jerusalem's Old City, is the best hummus in town. Although it's not my favorite, I can see their point. Unlike other hummusia-s in Israel, Abu Shukri has a wide selection of foods, not just hummus. Some would see this as a bonus, I see this as a distraction from the true love of hummus. I seem to always want french fries when I'm there, which takes away from a real hummus experience. But no matter-- the hummus itself is good, with a slightly lemon undertone, and soft soft soft chickpeas. The falafel is eh, no big deal, but a nice bite from time to time.
