Following the Yelp Elite event last night, which lacked vegan food so hard, my friend and I decided to hunt down some Falafel. We ended up back around my neighbourhood when I remembered there was a Shawarma place that is always open at like 2 am whenever I'm coming home on the weekends.
I have to admit, that had we not been starving and The Coup not been closed, I may not have initially chosen this establishment. It is very modest inside. We stood trying to decide what we had, when one of the staff told us we HAD to have the Falafel because they make it to order, and it is the best in the city.
We watched as the gentleman scooped up the chickpea goodness and placed it into the deep fryer. I ordered almost everything vegan on my wrap except for tomatoes because I am a horrible Italian. It was wrapped not once, but twice. Just how I like it. This was just what my starving, drunken stomach needed, and had I no self control I probably would have eaten a thousand of them.
I am still a big fan of Cedar's Deli as well as Pita Grill, but I will say that this is definitely the best Falafel I have had downtown or in the 17th Avenue area. You should try it.
