Went out to lunch with coworkers and was not expecting a hummus entry today. But an unexpected hummus is always a pleasant surprise…actually I can’t really say I’ve had many unexpected hummuses…or any. This really was a special day, on many levels.
I got a side of hummus with my felafel wrap entree which, in hindsight, didn’t really offer enough hummus for a thorough assessment. But I didn’t really need too thorough an assessment to determine that I liked it and would come back for more.
The presentation and preparation was really nice…loved the touch of some fresh herbs (parsley I’m guessing), a sprinkle of paprika and drizzle of olive oil.
And nothing says, We care about our hummus quite like a few whole garbanzo beans sitting on top of it.
Consistency was really good, balance of flavors was nice. It was hard to get a good sense of the pure hummus on its own as the flavors in the garnish, while delicious, were a bit overpowering, so next time I’ll order a side to allow delving into a purer experience of Dish n Dash’s hummus.
I feel like some of my hummus reviews are written in anger because some hummuses make me mad, and this hummus didn’t make me mad at all. Not even in the slightest.
It caught me off guard. I wasn’t expecting this from a place called Dish n Dash. But it spoke to me in all the right ways. And it delivered. I give it an 8. And I look forward to coming back and trying it again. On its own.
