Street food Falafel — the authentic version
The best Falafel I've ever had came from a street stall, not a restaurant. The warmly spiced intensity was completely different — more direct and uncompromised. tahini was used without hesitation, the way it should be.
Israeli cuisine is shaped by Jewish diaspora traditions from across the world fused with local Levantine ingredients. The a Shabbat family dinner setting meant eating standing up or on a low stool, which is how this food is supposed to be encountered. Israeli wine was sold right next to it. Don't wait to find the 'right' restaurant. Find the street version first.
