Ah, falafel. The king of Israeli street food. The cheap and cheerful snack usually served in a pita and always a bit tricky to eat on your first attempt or two. Especially when the pita is generously stuffed full with falafel, chips, salad and tehina sauce (a sesame based sauce very popular in the Middle East) and the pita starts falling apart in your hands…
Much more to come on the falafel front on igoogledisrael, but here’s a couple of videos that might keep you entertained for a minute or 2. The first video is the winner of a video competition set up by the government’s tourist site (www.goisrael.com), the second video is of a Tom Cruise-like (Cocktail mode) falafel vendor who likes to entertain his customers as he piles in those falafel balls.
