The joint is called Falafel King, and the sandwich was the King's special with lamb and hot sauce. This sandwich was all kinds of good. It's a pita wrap with falafel (they give you a free piece with hoummus (spelling?) as well while you wait in line!), hoummus, tahini (I think it's tahini, it's a light brown sauce), a cucumber tomato salad mix, some stewed lamb meat, and the aformentioned hot sauce (by request). This sandwich was soooooo good, and a decent size, which is only fair, because it costs about $8 after tax. The line was kind of long, but it moves very briskly, and the counter help could not have been nicer or more friendly. If your looking for a good sandwich, at a fair to medium price, you really should give this spot a try! Fri Nov 06 11:30:44 -0800 2009 123153 devilham 1 5161522 Where is it?

How many fast food counters can say they give an amuse bouche? Fri Nov 06 13:56:49 -0800 2009 5161405 219666 Parsnipity 1 5161871 Pretty popular spot on this board. Coincidentally, I just had my first falafel sandwich there in a long time this week. It's one of my favorite falafels in town, especially since the demise of the Reef Cafe, though I hear Fordee's in Watertown is pretty rocking, too. http://mcslimjb.blogspot.com/ Fri Nov 06 13:56:57 -0800 2009 5161405 10143 MC Slim JB 2 5161886 Yes, Fordee's is probably one of the best you're going to get in this neck of the woods......how I would kill for a place like Taim in NYC........ :( Fri Nov 06 14:00:37 -0800 2009 5161871 11301 Science Chick 2 5162208 Any word on a Reef revival? The family gave tantalizing hints before they closed, about a possible restaurant in Cambridge. I'm still in grief over the loss of their stuffed cabbage, their toum, and Sam's effervescent smile. Another counter service place where we almost always received an amuse bouche......
