Golden, crispy falafel tucked into a warm, fluffy pita, loaded with crunchy cabbage, fresh chopped salad, tangy pickles, & a generous swipe of creamy hummus & tahini. Finished with a hit of homemade spicy sauce for that perfect kick.
Served with hot, salty fries & a bright blood orange soda on the side, fresh, messy, & absolutely irresistible. #TESFA #Montreal

They gave me the wrong order :(

The to-go bag was held closed by staples, so when I opened the bag, the bag split apart & everything dropped to the ground 😬 they need to work on their to go packaging for sure.

The wrong order was tasty though lol
