"Hasiba in Pico-Robertson is one of the first places we go when we’re craving really good hummus, like their wild mushroom version with caramelized onions, tahina, fresh herbs, and chermoula, a North African sauce with tons of bright citrus and garlic flavors. But it’s also where we head for one of their favorite breakfast/lunch combos around: hamshuka (or humm/shuka on their menu), where their classic chickpea dip acts as the base for a tomatoey egg situation. Their dark, somewhat charred sauce comes out of the oven with gently poached eggs that look like white clouds floating in a tomato sky. The whole thing gets a handful of chopped chives, cilantro, and dill for a sharp finish and bite of freshness. Typically it comes with a side of warm pita, but their beautiful Friday-only challah might make the end of the workweek our designated hummus day." - sylvio martins
