Falafelle

25 Essential Peninsula Restaurants

"For tasty vegetarian street food, Falafelle is well worth a visit. Though the shop may appear snug and unassuming, this no-frills pick-up counter is known for fluffy pita pockets and falafel balls made from a signature blend of minced garbanzo and fava beans. The top-selling pita pocket comes with five falafel, zesty cabbage, sauerkraut, roasted red peppers, house salad, pickled vegetables, and sumac onions — resulting in a veggie flavor bomb. Another vegan fan-favorite is the Heaven’s Pita Pocket,” stuffed with eggplant, cauliflower, fried potato spheres, hummus, walnut pesto, and sun-dried tomato sauce. The ultra-smooth and creamy hummus is made from dry garbanzo beans that are soaked and slow-cooked each day." - Cathy Park
