How to try falafel in Dubai
This simple but surprisingly tasty dish is of Egyptian origin. Today, falafel is popular in almost all cuisines of the Middle East. Falafel is small balls of gentle mashed chickpeas - chickpea, with the addition of herbs, rolled in flour and fried in olive oil.

Often, this dish is served in lettuce leaves or in pita bread sprayed with sesame sauce. One can try falafel not only in the cafe. If you are lucky enough to visit local people, you’ll see that every family meal in the UAE includes this dish.
