I came to try because of the 4.9/5 review with several friends. So naturally I had high expectations.

Also see the picture of the felafel: if your felafel is Not toasty dark on the outside and green in the centre your not getting the real deal! They must be using lots of fresh green herbs to get that great colour :) This is the real...
