| Just Falafel has now landed in London town |
Looking for something a bit different at lunchtime? Well I may just have the answer for you. New kid on the block Just Falafel has arrived in London town and wants a slice of the healthier end of the fast food market.
If you're not sure what falafel is then let me explain. It’s quite simply a moulded patty of chickpeas and fava beans which can either be deep fried or baked. It’s got a slight crunch to the outside but a soft texture in the middle – and it’s suitable for veggies!
From the menu, I recommend you try the Quesadilla - a flour tortilla stuffed with cheese, tomatoes, pickled jalapenos and big chunks of falafel. It was much bigger than I was expecting and tasted pretty awesome.
If you’re sharing, I would also suggest that you try out the original which is their most popular dish and contains falafel, mint, parsley, tomato, and pickles stuffed to the rafters in a wrap with a side sauce of Tahini. Again, really filling with plenty of punch (see picture).
I noticed an amazing selection of fresh dips you can choose from - ideal if you need an extra kick to your falafel like I do. These included spicy Indian, red hot chilli and basil pesto mayo. I think these could have been pushed way more as that’s what really separates one falafel from another and could have added some exciting taste twists to the meal.
Overall the service was quick and the meal deal is a steal at £4.99 for a drink, fries and falafel sandwich. So move over Subway and get yourself down here – there’s a new boy in town!
I was a guest of Just Falafel quick service restaurant on Monmouth Street in London’s Covent Garden.
