    No one else thinks this guy is gentrification Guy Fieri?? He used "dank" instead of "flavor town" and "crunch cadets" "tiny little pita poppers" mite as be "to the extreme" or "out of bounds".

    Expensive for a falafel .. here in the mid-east it's a dollar fifty also falafel sandwiches tastes better when it's simpler some dope crunchy falafel with lettuce tomato and tahini sauce is all u need (pickles is optional)
    Also the type of bread is important, he was eating using shawarma pita (thicker and denser function is to absorb the juices from shawerma) while the falafel pita is much lighter and thinner its a eat on the go meal

    Seems like a nice guy but seriously why are you using cheesy catch phrases from a decade+ back? Really distracted from the I guess one falafel you briefly ate. Actually I’m not sure what the point of this was. I learned nothing on history of falafel either historical in general or a background to a specific place. I learned nothing about the ingredients or preparation. Description of that was about as complex as me telling you flour is used to bake bread. And you cut the camera when you eat so no real description of the food. Really what were you guys trying for? Not trying to be an asshole I’m just genuinely curious
