| - Since moving to London from Cleveland a few years back, there are many foods from home I find myself craving, from blueberry doughnuts to cassata cake; frozen custard to grilled cheese from Melt. However, Maha's falafel remains at the top of my list. I cannot visit home without stopping at the West Side Market at least twice to enjoy a falafel. Sure, we have falafel in London, but it all pales in comparison to Maha's. I've even eaten falafel from L'as du Falafel in Paris, which is rumored to be the best falafel in the world. Guess what, Maha's is better!
Picture it: perfect, fried to order, crispy falafels with a moist interior, composed of just the right blend of spices and seasonings, doused liberally in some of the finest tahini known to mankind, and all wrapped up in a soft, delicious pita. I can't resist the lure of the Jumbo, even though I always feel slightly too full after wolfing it down, but oh man, it is well worth any stomachache. And the staff are always efficient and friendly, and don't skimp on packing those pitas full to bursting. A must try for anyone visiting Cleveland.
