Hookah Lounge Jacksonville
The slow and relaxed experience of smoking a hookah, which includes preparation of the hookah and the tobacco, is the whole point of hookah smoking. It's not about a buzz or a nicotine fix, it's about the relaxed space, among friends and out of time, that is created by the hookah and the act of smoking it. Typically, a hookah smoking session lasts somewhere between 30 and 60 minutes.After carefully preparing a clean hookah with cold water, selecting a flavorful tobacco for the bowl, lighting and adding the charcoal, the aromatic hookah smoke is drawn bubbling through the water. Cooled and softened after being filtered by the water, light, pleasant smoke infuses the senses, lingering on the air, encouraging slow meditative breathing and sweetening conversation, games of dominoes, or quiet contemplation and study.
I would like to begin by telling you about my first experience in Beirut, Lebanon. It was in October of 2005. My friends took me to a very popular restaurant. As a Lebanese American, Lebanese cuisine was very familiar to me. I grew up on it. However, I had never been served quite like this.First, you start out with a table full of appetizers. This is called, the maza. Chick Pea dip (Hommos Bi Tahina), Eggplant Dip ( Baba Ghanouj), Steak Tartare (Kibbee Nayeh), Fried Cheese (Halloum), Spinach Pies (Fatayer Bi Sabanekh), etc. is just but a small sample of what you are served. I have to say, that I was full after this.Then they bring out the grilled meats. Beef, Lamb, Chicken. You can order any combination that you wish. The following recipe is for the traditional Chicken Kabob (Shish Taouk). Shish authentic Lebanese cuisine sterling VA refers to skewer. Taouk refers to Chicken. Taouk is actually a Turkish word.
