L'As du Fallafel


"The fallafel sandwich here contains the requisite super-crisp, garlicky chickpea fritters, with creamy hummus, lightly pickled red cabbage (something between slaw and kraut), salted cucumbers, fried eggplant and just-hot-enough harissa. This is all piled into a pita in such quantities that eating it is an adventure in napkin management. You can make for a slightly neater experience by eating in, but aside from the cramped tables and the brusque though not unfriendly service, there is something about this sandwich that begs for it to be eaten outdoors." - from the NY Times

Budget : 5€ for a fallafel sandwhich. Other types of kebab sandwiches also available. More about similar middle-eastern style sandwiches on the Paris-Sharing blog here :

 

L'As du Fallafel, 34, rue des Rosiers (Métro: St. Paul); (33-1) 48-87-63-60. Closed Saturday.

Tip : you pay while you are st anding in line, then present your ticket at the counter. It cost more to eat inside and it is a pity to do so!
