Workity work.
I was up with the cock-a-doodle-doo this morning…I’m not sure why, but for the fifth day in a row I woke up at 4 am on the dot (without my alarm even going off). Whatever. I dragged myself to the subway, and woke up a bit more along the way…
What’s there to say. Work was work was work was work. I was craaaazy busy all day, but not really in a good way. I felt like I was in slow motion and I couldn’t get myself organized, which is so unlike me. Blah. I don’t wanna talk about it anymore.
This is for you Courtney!!
The one and only, seaweed salad! The ingredients read: organic seaweed, organic sesame seeds, organic ginger, organic green onion, organic tamari, and sesame oil.
It is SO good. Although a bit on the oily side, I usually mix it with other things (salad, veggies, etc.) which neutralizes it a bit…or at least greases up the rest of my food…
Here it is in today’s lunch salad:
Other tuperware attendees included spinach, clover sprouts, broccoli slaw, shredded carrots, dried cranberries, raisins, and heart of palm.
The rest of my packed goodies: Newman’s Own dried apricots, berries gomega odwalla bar, apple, dried mangoes, and Ocean Spring’s harvest of heaven fruit chips.
I was still starving by the time I got off work…
TGIF!
For dinner, Kyle and I decided to do a little something special. Friday night dinner date! After I got off work we met for some bomb ass grub at….HUMMUS PLACE
Be jealous. Be VERY jealous. It was a cozy little place, but believe me, what it lacked in space, it made up for ten-fold in flavor!
Falafel balls, hummus masabacha (whole chick peas, olive oil & spices), quinoa salad, lebane, hummus tahini (tahini, olive oil & spices), and the most amazing, PUFFY, whole wheat pitas on earth!
Ummm, yeah, it was horrible.
We enjoyed the nice weather and walked home…
And as we both made playlists for our 10K tomorrow morning, I enjoyed this plum and a bowl of dried cranberries and carob covered raisins for dessert.

A restaurant dedicated to hummus?! That looks amazing!
I was up from like 2 to 4am for no reason at all, haha I almost WISH I’d had something to do or somewhere to go that early!
The HUMMUS place?! Yes, please.
Good luck on your 10k!

You are holy. You have been to the Hummus Place. I bow at your feet.
I hope those feet are extra fast during your 10K!!!
Ordered from Hummus Place several times. You should try the shakshuka next time…it’s really really good. My boyfriend once got the falafel wrap and loved it as well.
Oh my word! That Hummus Place would be my absolute hang out! That is too cool!!!
Sorry work was kind of a bummer, but it sounds like date night made up for it. Any restaurant with “hummus” in its name holds a special place in my heart. Looked delicious!
Hummus Place?! Genius! They should be millionaires
OMG, if we had a hummus place here, I would be totally broke….YUM…
What an awful restaurant! Um yeah, definitely NOT coming to NYC now
GOOD LUCK ON YOUR 10K!!! Knock ‘em dead!
I am glad you liked the Hummus Place. There is one a few blacks from my office if you ever want to meet for lunch.
Good luck with the run!

I love seaweed salad, and that place sounds awesome! Falafel mmm <3
I just moved to the UWS this week. I’ve been following your blog for a while and know you used to live there, so I am currently scouring your “Hot Spots” list for recommendations. My mom and I actually got takeout from Hummus Place for lunch yesterday (right around the corner), and it was pretty amazing. I’m also dying to try French Roast and Nanoosh… Any other recommendations?
