Noon Falafel

The Best Falafel in London

"Among the rows of fabric shops, burning incense and Ethiopian, Filipino, Algerian and Iraqi food stalls at Shepherd’s Bush Market is a Sudanese place with excellent falafel: perfectly fried with a wonderfully satisfying crunch. The recipe is simple, just chickpeas; onions; garlic; coriander seed; and fresh coriander. This gives them a hint of greenness, and intriguing slightly bitter flavour. The sauces too, are so good that it is worth ordering a portion alongside a wrap. The tahini is rich and thick, the green shatta — made with green chilli, garlic, peanut butter and lemon — fresh and tangy, and the red shatta — made with red chilli, lemon and garlic — fiery but still bright." - Joel Hart
