Today’s Good Living has an article on the chickpea degustation I hosted with Somer Sivrioglu from Efendy. This is a screen shot from the Good Living iPad app, since I don’t have access to the newspaper itself. As you’ll find out by reading this article, Somer and I are preparing for an eggplant themed dinner in October – I’ll give you more details when I have them. I’m pretty happy with this article and I think the photo of my chickpea and walnut trifle looks great. It’s a wonderful dessert, if I may say so myself, so go and try it at Efendy – Somer’s added it to his menu.

Everything sounds delicious, and now O how I pine for that maamoul trifle—labneh AND rosewater candied chickpeas (so intrigued by this), at once creative yet elegant 😀
Candied chickpeas in dessert, that’s a revelation! Congrats on the degustation success and the article.
Are you going to post this chickpea dessert? I would love to try to make it! So proud of you and I see you having a very bright future as a Lebanese chef!
Congratulations Fouad and Somer on a wonderful article in Good Living. I hope to be back in Sydney for your eggplant event.

Congrats Fouad!
It’s is a shame that I missed out.
I’ve kept a copy of the newspaper for you and now I’m looking forward to the eggplant feast 🙂
Small world ya Fouad!
We have both lived in Mastita and both worked at Macquarie!
Congrats on the Good Living feature, Fouad. One for the grandkids. I would have loved to have attended but as luck would have it I was out of town that week. Looking forward to hearing about the upcoming eggplant feast.
I always have chickpeas in the cupboard but I rarely use them but it looks like I’ve been missing out all these years. I’ve been inspired enough to get my recipe book out.
Would have loved to have attended! Congrats on the feature. Hope you are enjoying your trip o/s 🙂
Sounded wonderful, Congrates Fouad, i never knew the humble chickpea was so versatile.
