Food And Hookah


Recommended Posts

What are the best eats when smoking? I know a lot of people probably don't eat anything while smoking, but I would like to know becasue I'm in the process of opening a small lounge in northeast-PA (The Crimson Lion). I'm probably going to set up a deal with the nearby Middle Eastern restaurant and carry some of their smaller foods like hummus and tabouli as well as their baked goods and other bagged snacks. In addition I'm going to have unique organic sodas, floats, tea, and gourmet coffee. I'm going to get pre-prepared stuff becasue I'm pretty sure that the smoking law's restriction to food being under 20% of sales only applies to stuff I make in the lounge... Edited by Whorsquini

Personally I like pastries
...toffee cookies, turkish delights, macadamia nut cookies, pie
...I think these really can compliment a good session, especially with a good tea

I've eaten food food while hookahing and it just isn't my thing...my buddies and I usually get a few pizzas here and there and I just dont care for the eating a meal while smoking hookah.

Bingo!

I never ever eat while i smoke. But give me a cup of earl grey tea, or turkish coffee, and im in heaven.

Although the best time to smoke hookah IS after a meal.

When smoking a "fruit" flavored shisha, I prefer to eat that particular flavor. Ex: I was smoking Nak Strawberry and eating strawberries. Good times, good times.

I cannot eat various foods and smoke at the same time. It just ruins my taste buds. I have to eat before I smoke. Now I can eat just about anything before smoking. If I could have my way...sushi everyday, all day before smoking.

First you eat, then you smoke. That's what I do. Nothing beats having friends over and overindulging then loading a few heads and puffing away. In order to soothe the throat, and digest better, I recommend very sweetened tea, maybe mango juice or some other juice cocktails. Small bowls of roasted pistachios, almonds and cashews nuts are always welcome between puffs and sips of tea.

Depends on the flavor. I'm all for water, juice, flavored teas or an Ice Cap (Tim Hortons version of a Frap.) Usually whatever will go well with I'm smoking.

As for food I don't usually eat while smoking but if I'm at the lounge I usually pick something with a suttle flavor hummus, cheese and crackers but we usually eat dinner then smoke.
