benzino Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Do you guys enjoy to have some kind of food before/after/during your smoking session?

IainUM Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 well if i eat while smoking it is normally like chips, but i do like to smoke a bowl of nakhla mint after a meal from time to time. i did that last night while drinking beer and eating pizza while drunk. it was pretty nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelLCP Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I think its personal preference. I myself don't really like to eat and smoke at the same time. I think the flavor of the food throws off the taste of the hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claytronmeans Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Eating is good while smoking, it can help keep you from getting too hookah sick. With that being said, eat what ever the hell you want! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorlyfish Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I never eat more than finger food while smoking, and if I do, something bland. I like to enjoy the taste of the shisha, so eating a competing flavor can either hide the flavor of the shisha or make some really gross combinations...

ahhhdam Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Usually it just a drink while I hookah. But just a quick tip dont hookah right after eating any spicy/hot food. Really effs with your taste buds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nars2k Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I dont like eating anything heavy while smoking. A sandwhich, snacks or finger food works fine. If I smoke in the morning, cereal goes great with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeDave Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I don't know if you all have Jimmy Johns around where you are from, but they're cold cut sub sandwhiches, best around. Half while smoking, the other half later. Great for a good hefty, dark smoke, like brambleberry or double apple. Actually, now that I think about it, I've never NOT enjoyed a JJ sub while smokin hookah, no matter what the flavor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Ramen Noodles... nuff said Back in the day I would load up a bowl of Al Waha Cola, cook a bowl or ramen, and be in heaven!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
method Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) chips/doritos and similar snacks at the most , never full meal for me . not cuz it messes up the hookah flavour but just cuz i dont find a meal + any kind of smoking a good combination . but , i always drink something with nargila , cant smoke without a drink [img]http://www.hookahforum.com/public/style_emoticons/default/excl.gif[/img] Edited May 2, 2011 by method Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzino Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 Thanks so, most people dont eat during. But i have heard at some hookah lounges they will serve food and then you have your hookah after ? what food will they serve ? and finger foods, would cut up pita and some humos or pate work ?

TheyCallMeDave Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Well pita bread with hummus is very common in hookah lounges, but it's no more enjoyable than cheese sticks, or sandwhiches, or chips, what have you. It's to eaches own opinion. Are you trying to like open a hookah bar, or throw a hookah party or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltimateHookah Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Before, during or after, at least 1 of those is a must, and the better the food is the better the session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Flavour Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I like having a shisha after a big meal, helps me digest for some reason :s and makes it taste so so good! Cant go wrong with a shisha after dinner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookah hippie Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I usually never eat while smoking, I do have a drink if I am thirsty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I love me some soft drink/beer and popcorn chicken when I smoke my hookah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I like to smoke after eating. Otherwise, a nice beverage is great for hookah time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I'm pretty much eating all the time... I don't have a full sit down dinner while I'm smoking but I'll eat some pistacios or some fruit... if I have hummus or baba ganoush I'll eat that. To drink I will have tea or water. Last night when my girlfriend was over we had Tangiers Mimom with a scoop of blueberry sorbet and scoop of lemon sorbet with coconut milk mixed berry compote that was sweetened with some honey. It was an incredible match. <3 <3 <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Not thinking of a hookah bar or party at the moment, but ye something similar to that. So no plan, as i havnt even gotten my hookah in the post yet, just thought if i have a mate round or my missus then see what i could get going to make it good or something like that.

phantastik Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I usually perfer eating before a smoke, never anything during though. I find that things like candy/chips/finger foods throw off my taste buds when I'm trying to enjoy my shisha. This doesn't change anything about having something to drink during my session though. I enjoy soda or tea during the smoke, depending on the flavor. Most of the times it compliments what i'm smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikemyusername Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 sometimes my wife and I set up cheeses and crackers with grapes and such when we have a few people over. We'll just sit inside, eat goat cheese, drink red wine and smoke nakhla for hours, its very nice but it's not really a sit down formal meal, just help yourself.

king_lunchb0x Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 i have actually grown very fond hummus and some naan bread ( how ever you spell it). Not really a meal but still really good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Roome Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 The hookah lounge I go to there's a 24 hours Mexican joint right across the street, for me a big, greasy burrito always goes well with my hookah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
