Finding healthy eats is challenging these days unless you're willing to pay a premium price. Restaurant Nilufar bucks that trend by delivering simple and healthy middle eastern cuisine at a great value.
Small and unassuming, the restaurant is a no frills establishment within walking distance of Concordia. The owners are friendly and prices start at less than $2 for a wrap. A satisfying lunch with a drink can be had for less than $6 and a massive amount of food can be yours for less than $10 bucks.
The vegetarian falafel wrap is some of the best food you can get in Montreal for under $2 bucks. Two crispy on the outside moist on the inside falafels wrapped in a flour tortilla filled with shredded lettuce and then topped with tahini sauce and add hummus, babaganoush, or another spread for a bit extra.
If a wrap isn't going to cut it for you, then go for a hearty plate of rice, nan bread and a variety of middle eastern sides and mains, many of which are displayed in the deli counter and look delightful.
The focus here is on great food at a great value, everything else is just a distraction.
