 YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rosler. I'm in the old city of Jerusalem today on a bit of a Turkish coffee crawl trying out to various places starting here just inside Damascus Gate in Albaqa Cafe. They do amazing, amazing Turkish coffee. We're going to get some coffee beans and my favorite Izzy man. And we're also going to check out the Lena restaurant and another good news today. I passed the 1000 subscriber mark on YouTube. So thanks to everyone who's been watching and engaging with my video so far. I really appreciate it and hopefully bringing more fun adventures in and around Jerusalem to your screens very soon. Today is Yom Ujuma, which is the Islamic Holy Day every Friday. And the old city is absolutely packed because a lot of people get permits to pray at the Al Aqsa Mosque on Friday. So in the opposite direction before I'm walking, there's a constant stream of thousands of people going backwards. This is reputed by many to be the very best couples in Jerusalem, especially in the old city. We're going to get a mixture of different dishes. We're going to get the hummus, which is of course the world famous food by now, chickpeas. We also get a little bit less famous food that's called Musabaha. The difference between hummus and musabaha is that musabaha, the hummus and actual chickpeas are left whole for part of the dish. Really, really delicious. It's going to get as big as hummus one day, I'm certain. And we're also going to try food, which is a fava beans and of course a personal favorite, favorite line is the fava beans. If they have it today. It's fava beans and so many places get food, horribly wrong. They don't cook. Have a look at this presentation. It's so soft. It's covered in olive oil all around in a few hummus chickpeas on top. 14 years finished up with some musabaha for today, but we did get some hummus as well. And we got our fava beans, we got our bread. And this is how you eat this. It's kind of almost like a meze platter of like different beans spreads. He makes it all together. There's no real rules for it, but this is an answer to the best hummus I've ever tasted, but I'm also not sure that they're the best hummus is such a thing. It's definitely one of the best hummus I've had so far. We've just finished eating in Lina's. We ate as many beans as we could fit in our stomachs for $15 and we're going to go now to Newgate, which is called an Arabic Koubab al-Jadid. It's kind of part of the Christian quarter. So we're going to go there, but there's a couple of really cool establishments inside there. There's a taboon and wine bar and there's also a cool coffee shop. So we're going to get some coffee now and continue our food trail through the old city of Jerusalem. We're just sitting here inside the Newgate in the old city, at a really, really cool coffee store, wine store, bookstore, all in one. It's called Geyway in Arabic. It's al-Ghawada. I just actually picked off a dictionary of local Palestinian Arabic Amir. And I also got one of my favorite beers. There's two main types of Palestinian beer. One is a beer called Sheppard's, who apparently are having a festival pretty soon in Jerusalem. The other is Taiba. This is the blue label Taiba. It's their IPA. I think it's super, super good. They have an October fest pretty much every time this time of year. It's just past just the site of Ramallah. And this place has a really good selection of coffee. They if you're learning Arabic in Jerusalem, they have lots and lots of Arabic textbooks supported by the local teaching institutes. So that's something you're doing. This is definitely a good place to come. And they have pastries as well and cookbooks. So they've really got everything here. And this place inside Newgate, the entrance to the Christian quarter, was kind of run down as recently as five years ago. And it's great to see places like this. It's a boon and wine bar, just a few doors down, starting to open up and flourish and bring a bit of life to this part of the old city. So continuing with our coffee crawl in East Jerusalem and in the old city, we're here in a store called Abu Atazaman. It's on the shore of Bab al-Jadid, which is the road running just inside of the Newgate. And this is how when you get Turkish coffee served correctly, it's cooked in what's called an Ibrik or a Jezveh in Turkish. Traditionally, they serve it with one of these delightful little glasses, cups. These are actually called finjans in Arabic. Israeli is called the Ibrik, a finjan, which is in incorrect use of the Arabic. So they serve it with this and this. And you usually get a biscuit, a cac or something like that with it. And you get just a little bottle of water as well, because Turkish coffee is strong and short, kind of like espresso. So you just kind of pour your own cup. Given that we've been to two venues already on the coffee call, my hands are a little bit shaky. But this place is super cool. They also do, I've discovered, shepherds, which is one of the two Palestinian beers, brewed I believe in Bethlehem. They have a beer festival soon. They actually have a stout. And of course, being originally from Ireland, if there's any stout, I will try it. So I'm going to have my coffee first, then move on for a bit of stout. So really cool places. If you're looking for a good place to have some really, really authentic Turkish coffee, Arabic coffee, check out some of these venues in the old city. Thanks for watching.
