...evening of May 21, hundreds of business leaders from the region and beyond flowed through the halls of the hotel, past banks of honeysuckle and jasmine, into the garden, where cooks grilled chicken on giant charcoal burners and served baba ghanoush, tabbouleh and baklava. Participants at a conference on investment opportunities in Palestine, they talked up the prospects of the local information-technology industry (whose products, which can be whizzed to markets electronically, are not subject to the whims of Israeli border guards) and bragged about the performance of the Palestine stock exchange.

...reputation for successfully inventing new takes on old standards during his decade-long tenure in the United Arab Emirates - has created an informative, user-friendly tome with 120 culinary creations.

He intersperses juicy recipes and equally juicy stories about growing up in Nablus and attending conferences around the world as an adult. He explains how to make falafel, tabbouleh, baba ghanoush and lesser-known dishes. At the same time, the reader picks up knowledge that is not strictly culinary. For example, that baba means coquettish and ghanoush is, roughly, dissolute - adjectives that seem unlikely for an aubergine purée but which Jamal explains in a delightful story about his aunt's unmarried...
