We enjoyed the fresh & zesty flavors of our food! The chicken bowl was packed with veggies & chicken & a generous helping of spicy sauce! The falafel salad had a minty flavor coating the many veggies. They forgot to include a side pita with the salad but that was more than ok as we couldn't finish the generous portions anyway.

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
