Thanks for the explanation about why it is usually eaten on Tuesday and Friday. Or Yehuda is one of my favorite places to eat. I visited Efie’s recently, best couscous in town.

I'll check it out...eventually. We have a brand new two week old in the house so it might be some time before I head over to Or Yehuda. :( Thanks for the address. I’ll check it out…eventually.

Be forewarned, though, it takes a while to prepare. We had dinner a little late that night. Thanks for the link to John B's app! Sounds intriguing. I shall have to d/l it and try it out. Sophie: Effie makes a mean mafrum, and a pretty good shakshuka too. I think I'll have to take you to Effie's when I come for a visit :). harry: Yeah, isn't that interesting? I wish I could remember where I got that info... Effie's is in the old industrial zone in Or Yehuda. How silly of me to forget to list the address. Here it is: Couscous Mafroum (That's the official name, but everyone calls it Effie's) 12 Yehezkel Kazaz St. Or Yehuda, Israel 03-5339252 Ann: It *was* delish! :) Thanks to Ya Rayi for the detailed couscous preparation instructions and the excellent spice mixture.

Let me know and I'll report back!

I admit, though, that I most often make the quick and dirty variety. Your recipe is inspiring me to make the real thing next time -- it sounds delish! I was checking in on John B's (from "the list") entry into this My Dream Mac App contest he was in a while ago, and although he got knocked out, there's a guy with a recipe builder/manager app that looks really cool: http://mydreamapp.com/contestants/view/michaelyuan/ I like the timers for prep time and cook time -- what a great idea!
