"Falafel Salam started as a well-attended Fremont Market booth and has since expanded into a food truck business with a West Seattle outpost. At the center of the expanding culinary enterprise is chef Shimi Khan’s fluffy green falafel, which nails a crispy exterior without drying out the center. Khan then spruces up the falafel with expertly crafted accompanying sauces, like the fermented mango sauce and garlic green aioli. Don’t sleep on the halva mousse with date honey for dessert, kind of like a tahini sundae topped with flaked halva instead of sprinkles." - Alana Al-Hatlani
