I'm biased, but c'mon, try and tell me it doesn't hit the spot EVERY time.
Simplicity wins when the utmost respect is given to humble ingredients.
Sahten habibi!
when I get with friends, it's the best. Lots of salads, kibbeh/meat snacks, dips etc. etc. with fresh Arabic flatbread/pita (خبز). Strong tea to go with it. I dream about it sometimes.
From Mama Noura's, KSA. They. MAKE. The Bread. The chicken? FRESH AF and so deeply marinated. The sauce? Just the right amount. No mess, no fuss and the speed of delivery, oh my god.
I don't even need the extra garlic sauce or fries. Of course even better if you add other stuff, but it boils down to the main components.
My love for this man’s filmmaking is so profound it could bring me to tears.
Garlic Is As Good As Ten Mothers (1980) gave me more validation than I knew a film could. So much so I made my family sit down and watch it recently. My brother promptly ordered me the books mentioned in the doc. Feeling seen is never overrated.
Special mention to Innocents Abroad (1991) and Always for Pleasure (1978).
