Description
"'Sah-ten' is the Arabic equivalent to 'bon appetit'. It roughly translates to 'two healths', and is often said in Palestine when food is placed on the table. The book is a portrait of the skateboarding scene in Palestine told through food. Featuring recipes from various people in Palestine's skateboarding community, shop owners, local heroes, volunteers and friends including Hiba Express and internationally-renowned chef and co-author of 'Falastin', Sami Tamimi. Each dish is illustrated as part of a collaboration between Palestinian-Canadian skater Noor Abouseido and some of the young skaters from our skate sessions in Palestine. Alongside the recipes you'll find interviews with local skaters, a piece on the significance of the olive and its annual harvest, a yoga sequence to help ease any skate-related aches and pains, and a how-to guide for upcycling an old skateboard into a chopping board -- all peppered with photography collected over the years."--Publisher's description.
