I don’t know the exact classification of this type of art … i guess it is abstract art. … regardless … here are some very beautiful pieces by Yazan Khalifeh. I found these at RamallahUnderground.com.
I am trying to describe this, or give it contextual setting … but i can’t. All you need to know is: new building, under construction, highest point in Ramallah (..i think).
It seriously is nothing short of that!! The “Magnum Burger” at Chili Chili (rather an odd name if you ask me) is seriously one thick, juicy, delicious burger. I’ve tried burgers from various places ranging from the big chains (McD, BK, Hardee’s/Carl Jr, Wendy’s ..etc) to the more obscure places … but this one does win the challenge (IMHO).
M7ashee, stuffed vegetables, is a (very delicious) traditional Palestinian/Levantine dish. The vegetables are usually carved and then stuffed with rice, some meat, and a dash of spices. The dish is cooked with a light tomato sauce and served hot.
The interesting thing is that people have used all sorts of vegetables in this dish. Besides the traditional Zucchinis and Egg Plants, some people stuff the following vegetables:
Green Peppers
Small Pumpkins (يقطين)
Potatoes
Cucumbers
Tomatoes (this is probably the hardest one)
Sweet Carrots (The purple ones)
فقوس (i don’t know what that is in English, but it looks like cucumbers)
Do you know of other vegetables that are also used in m7ashee ?
