Dan Brown - You Got It WRONG!!!!!

And whilst they were at supper, He took bread and broke it.

And after He hath broken the bread He saideth unto his disciples, "Anyone know where Judas put the hummus?"

This, my friends, is where the DaVinci Code got it all wrong. The secret that the Church has been trying to keep for millenia isn't that Jesus had a child with Mary Magdalene.

The secret is that Jesus also wanted to serve hummus at the Last Supper!

Don't believe me? Well, here's a picture of DaVinci's Last Supper painting that had I had a special x-ray picture taken of:

What do you think all those mini carrots behind Jesus are for?
That's right people- they're for the Hummus!

So in honor of Jesus' B-day, I decided to let you all know about an awesome place for hummus that I went to recently called Mimi's Hummus in Ditmas Park, Brooklyn.

If you haven't had good fresh hummus, you've never really had it. The stuff in stores is nasty and inedible to even most vegans, and we all know the stuff that they'll torture themselves with by passing it off as "edible." Ha!

I've been going to Hummus Place on East 8th street for years. It's a great place for fresh hummus in Manhattan.

But I think that this place in Ditmas Park has Hummus Place beat.

Check it out.

Sorry for the pic quality. I had forgotten my camera at home and had to take the pic with my "dining companion's" IPhone.

Anyway, this is such creamy smooth hummus.

They serve it warm with homemade pita, pickles and olives. Check out all that parsley and the toasted pine nuts on top. The key with this hummus was the fresh lemon juice they squeeze on it.

It was like the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back." I know that's a wrong use of that expression, but what do you expect from me? It's not like I have an advanced degree from Columbia or something....

And check out that fresh garlic. It's delicious. But definitely have the foresight to bring some gum with you if you're planning on having an intense make out session with your "dining companion" after the foreplay of your hummus orgy.

If I had a dollar for every time I've made that mistake- I'd have nothing! Boo Yah! Because I always make out! The ladies are helpless around me once I bring them for hummus!
Woohoo!

Did I just write that?

I'm sorry. It's just that hummus gets me REALLY excited. It must be my chickpea bead fetish.

Regardless, Mimi's also has other delicious dishes.

My favorite was the cauliflower salad.

It seemed like the cauliflower was roasted and then finely chopped and mixed with some tahini. Jesus should have included this at the Last Supper too. Jesus, I know you had a lot on your plate with saving the world and sins and stuff, but come on, this was the Last Supper! Where was the cauliflower salad???? Next time, you gotta plan ahead Jesus!

And finally, the grape leaves:

Grape Leaves are like hummus.

Most peoples impression of them is that they taste like little turds, because they look like little turds. And most of the ones you get at middle eastern restaurants are cold, slimy and turdy.

But fresh grape leaves are delicious. These ones had a brown rice/bulgur filling and were warm. And they had this awesome tahini parsley sauce on top.

One of the best things about Ditmas park is all the creepy advertisements that you can see on the way back to the subway.

They make a great visual after dinner aperitif, if you will....

Anyhow, if you haven't become a fan of AramScarum on facebook yet, your missing out on the greatest experience of your life.

Here's the link.

And next time you go to communion, try bringing a package of hummus with you.

Trust me, the priest will know what's going on. That's why he's winking at you...
