the perfect lunch

 I don't usually do menu reviews in this blog but I had such a good lunch that I think it's worth mentioning.  A friend and I had lunch at Pastor's today.  I know it's still considered risky to eat in restaurants but we hadn't seen each other in months and we've both had our shots.  She's also full of chemo so she's feeling invincible.  But about my lunch, I like fresh vegetables and cheese and other goodies but I don't like lettuce.  So today I spotted something on the menu that I hadn't tried before, the hummus plate.  It was beautiful.  The lunch was presented on a large platter.  There were mounds of chopped tomatoes, hummus (of course), black olives, chopped cucumber, feta cheese and pita chips.  It was everything a person would want in a salad, without lettuce.  Excellent.  I think a person is expected to pile a little dab of everything on a pita chip (really a nice little square of chewy bread) and eat it like a little open faced sandwich.  I, however, mushed everything together, except the bread of course, and it made the best salad ever. I recommend it.
