Hummus Among Us

This city has seen sushi bars, ceviche bars, tapas bars, topless bars, wine bars, piano bars, and noodle bars ... and now it has a hummus bar, which is what Nanoosh on the Upper West Side is billing itself as. I stopped in yesterday to sample a few of their nine varieties, and was impressed by the creaminess of the hummus with fava bean stew, and the spiced ground meat that topped the "hummus beef." Also on the menu: soups, Mediterranean salads and wraps. Word about the spreads will soon be spreading, as plans for Tribeca and the East Side openings are afoot.

It's not nearly as good as the Hummus Place just a few blocks away on Amsterdam around 73rd street....The hummus at hummus place could compete with that in the middle east...Nanoush can't really compete with much American hummus...

their chicken wrap was one of the best things i'd ever tasted. mmm. could go for one of those right now...

That looks like a dump- Literally, with Elmer's glue on it.

The hummus with beef, mushrooms, and onions is great. I went on a Friday night before going to the movies. It was quick and good. Not a big fan of the rice pudding but the sweet potato soup is to die for.
