The fact that hummus plays a leading role here is clear from the name alone. It is either served plain with a soft-boiled egg and fluffy pitta or can be customised with various toppings. And all in a pretty casual way.

Social commitment and gastronomy can certainly be combined, as this example impressively demonstrates. The "Habibi Burger" is served with organic Galloway beef and deep-fried aubergine, rocket, confit onions and tahini sauce in a brioche bun.

When it comes to Moroccan cuisine, this is a reliable address and a rarity in Vienna when it comes to quality. The preparation of tajine stews is excellent here, and hummus or briwat bladi (stuffed dumplings) can also be bought over the counter.
