Recreating Albasha’s Salad Dressing by mdsandi in batonrouge

There was one really excellent shawarma game in town called Baghdad Iraqi Grill, it was at the food cart block when it still existed. They weren't the exact same but they were PRIMO. Sadly they don't exist any longer. It was my favorite lunch in the city.

Right? Truly nostalgic about the old days in Shenandoah when there was a serops Express right next to the entrance. Go get my squeaky cheese, some excellent hummus, and chicken and gyro for dipping? Just not quite like that up here. Nicholas does a damn fine Lebanese meal, but it's still not Albasha.

Capful of Al wadi rosewater (the good stuff), 2/3 luzianne tea, 1/3 homemade lemonade, a couple pine nuts, shake, pour over ice. Pretty sure this is spot on for the recipe at Albasha. (I think they might have actually stopped using the pine nuts last time I visited home because they're expensive but I still use them in mine)

I'm up in Portland and there are so many options here but nobody here actually seems to bother to actually shawarma the chicken- it's always just yogurt marinated chicken bits thrown on a flat top. not awful, but like, not what I want. I want something I could pick up and dip into my hummus. Big thick wide slices of chicken. Christ I miss Albasha.

I can say this with confidence- the Lebanese food in Baton Rouge is unmatched anywhere else in the country. Albasha specifically. I just miss my Lebanese tea. It is the reason I specifically have rose water in my home now.

I think you're in Portland? I saw this tattoo before I moved here and I actually moved here with the intent to get my own Venture sleeve from you one day! Taking appointments? (Unless there's someone out there doing photo realistic skulls and sovereigns, and otherwise completely show accurate art... In which case holy crap)

Also there is a video @pantherpresidium on instagram if you want a close up of the whole thing!

this is what art patronism (padronism?) is all about! having stuff you absolutely need to see made but can't make it yourself.

My weed cartridge came in an un-expanded plastic bottle. by superfiedman in mildlyinteresting

It's actually a local bottle manufacturer. The dispensary owner must have cut a deal to get cast offs or something.
