Abu Jbara, Humus Specialists, Amman

I like Michelin star restaurants, I do. In a few cases, I even love them. But you know what I like even better? Places that specialize in one thing.
Al Jbara is a restaurant in Amman, Jordan that specializes in Humus. They do Lebanese Humus, with whole chickpeas mixed in. Breakfast humus with chickpeas and bread folded through to keep you going the whole day. And my favorite, Jordanian humus with just a few chickpeas strewn on top and a magic sauce. As far as I can tell, the magic sauce consists of grated spicy green peppers in lemon juice with a little bit of garlic and salt. One teaspoonful transforms the smooth silky humus from just “Wow! This is good!” To “Holy chickpeas batman, this humus is rocking my world!”
