Falafels

[steadybreeze]

Anyone buying them in plastic cartons from Aldi/Morrisons or whatever are quite right to think they're crap, get them freshly made with all the trimmings in quality flat bread and its as good as any street food anywhere.

Tried them the first time in Cairo and was blown away, cost about 40p he threw a few cheeky crisps in as well from under his barrow because he liked Jim Smith "The Bald Eagle" . I generally don't eat vegan stuff cos i love meat but middle eastern food like this is bursting with flavour, various pickles, sauces, mixed with citrus and spices is a taste sensation. It just fills you up without the kebab/meat stodge. Best place in Nottingham is Falafels Nottingham just off slab square, great food at student prices.

Finally reporting back - not as moist as I expected, but still pleasant. Chilli sauce gave it a much needed kick.

6 out of 10 on the lusharooney scale
7 out of 10 with the chilli sauce

Aye, they're not bad considering its fake food. Chilli sauce is a great shout.

I think adding a bit of mayo will push it towards an 8, although it might get to the point where it's pretty much a different product.

Falafel is both the singular and plural.
I bet you say paninis too

I went to the cafe in Langley Park and ask for a panino

The woman asked if I meant panini

I said "I only wanted one of them"
