Went for a walk around the nieghbourhood last night and popped into the first take-out place I saw, looking for a late dinner. Given that it was 9pm on a Monday night, I assumed I'd be receiving premade, stale falafel slapdashed onto a pita. Not so! They formed and fried the patties in front of my eyes. As I waited for them to cook, I watched them chop vegetables and make a new batch of taboule (keepin things fresh at 9pm on a weekday? Love it!) and they chatted me up about their business (been there over 25 years, were awarded best shwarma in Toronto in 2009!)
I had my sandwhich with all the veggies, hot sauce and garlic sauce. The red onion was just chopped so it over powered the falafel a little bit, and I made the silly decision to go light on sauce. For this, I can only blame myself...
Super nice couple, good fresh food, go light on onions and get extra sauce. Will return for shawarma!
