Abu Hassan

The Ali Karawan family hummus operation in Jaffa — the city's reference plate, open since 1959.

Abu Hassan has run from the same Jaffa corner since 1959 and remains the most-cited hummus plate in the country — three options on the menu, lunch only, sold out by 14h on a good day. The Karawan family has held the operation across three generations and the recipe has not moved.

Arrive at 11h, order one hummus, one msabaha, one ful for two, eat at the standing bar with fresh pita and raw onion. The address is the lunch that anchors the trip's first day — every other hummus in the city is calibrated against this plate.

The hummus that anchors the day.
