"In front of the market is Mr Falafel: a place totally devoted to the stuff. One wall is painted as the Palestinian flag, the others hung with old photos of Jerusalem, and bags of Palestinian imported sumac and za’atar from Yaffa Foods take their places next to diners. Yet the menu is notably pan-Arab, with Syrian (with fresh lemon slices), Iraqi (with amba) and Lebanese (with fresh mint leaves) falafel options offered on top of the classic Palestinian version. The owner has tried to anticipate any possible combination that may be requested, and this results in an incredible bounty of choice. Served inside a khobez, the classic falafel wrap can be ordered in budget, medium, extra-large or king size (everything else can only be ordered in the latter three sizes.) It comes with a very generous amount of tahini, pickle and salad, and the falafel is well-balanced, expertly fried with a distinct chickpea flavour still present. Add homemade green shatta for its tasty, intensely hot kick." - Joel Hart
