Humus (Humus)
Syrian humus wrap Turks love Turkish food. Turks are passionate about their food. Turks are proud of their food. So much so that it is hard to find any food other than Turkish food. We love Turkish food. We try to make Turkish food at home sometimes. We enjoy Turkish restaurants. But…we are the world-traveling American types that like a little culinary variety…every once in a while. So when we stumbled upon a small Syrian eatery with falafels, humus, and Damascas’ kunefe, we were delighted. The bad news: our Syrian restaurant didn’t bring in the customers. The good news: they transformed themselves into an Arabian exported goods store—replete with Damascus dates and strange pre-packaged comfort foods-- catering to the many refugees in our city AND they still have their cooking equipment in the back just in case someone asks for a falafel wrap. That sums up foreign food in Isparta.
