The Joy of Eating...in the Occupied West Bank

There are ingredients that are added and mixed to create a tasty dish, and then there are ingredients that go into making the whole of a meal-going experience desirable in itself.


The environment of where you eat your meal can leave a lasting impression. Sometimes the adventure is the meal, sometimes it’s the journey to the meal. I had the good fortune of attending a number of restaurants  in Palestine in the summer of 2010 during my nearly five week stay. I can't stress how much of a joy it was to discover all the new, charming eateries in Palestine.


Like everyone else, I am going to die. But the words – the words live on
for as long as there are readers to see them, audiences to hear them. It is
immortality by proxy. It is not really a bad deal, all things considered.
-J. Michael Straczynski
