A favorite quick-bite on the streets of Paris, at Lโ€™As du Fallafel.

Lโ€™As du Fallafel is one of the few places where Parisians chow down on the street. Beginning with a fork, dig into warm pita bread stuffed with marinated crunchy cabbage, silky eggplant, sesame hoummous, and boules of chick-pea paste, crisp-fried fallafel. Spice it up with a dab of searingly-hot sauce piquante.

Lโ€™As du Fallafel: 34, rue de Rosiers, in the Marais. Open every day, except closed friday beginning at sundown, reopening for lunch sunday.

    I also remember a really yummy falafel stand down a side street near Centre Pompidou. I went back several times. If I remember correctly, itโ€™s run by two brothersโ€“least of all two men, and perhaps โ€˜brothersโ€™ is somewhere in the title. The name escapes me just now. I made a mistake by going to the place next door the first time I ventured down there, because I didnโ€™t want to wait in the line of people crowded around the falafel joint. Big mistake. Note to self: almost always go to the place where there are impatient and hungry Parisians lining up. Usually a sign thereโ€™s something there worth trying.

    My family and I visited Paris for the first time several years ago. We found this place and enjoyed it so much we went twiceโ€ฆonce in the pouring rain! We still dream about the fallafel. The best weโ€™ve had in the world.
