Wow - that's a great description....... I'm an inveterate meat eater, who doesn't usually consider herself fed unless there's been meat served...but I will make an exception for good falafel! Of course, everything has to be fresh...........fresh fresh......and yes, it is wonderful, and messy...but yum yum yum! Zoe mentioned having them with sauerkraut, etc., and I can't even imagine that! I don't doubt her, just can't imagine it! Beryl, you really have to try it...take Diane up on her offer!!!
