I had a sudden craving for falafels today! The best place in Singapore for some good Middle Eastern cuisine is no doubt the Arab Street areas which is littered with numerous exotic cafes/restaurants.

 

Immediately, I knew what I wanted once the waitress passed us the menu. The Foul and Falafel set ($7.50) came with more pita breads than I could finish. Now, "foul" is not referring to the smell of this dish. Rather, it's the national breakfast dish of Egypt. I love this! The thick stew-like dip was wonderful paired with the pita bread. Slightly tangy, I could eat this on its own.

These little deep fried balls of spiced chickpeas satisfied my craving just fine. Moist on the inside, the outer part was just a tad dry but hey, I'm not complaining!

  

I'm so in love with falafels that I bought a pack of premix to make them at home so I can have them everyday! I can't wait to see how they turn out to be!
