Falafel for Everyone

I had never had falafel prior to my stay in Paris and I can honestly say now that it just maybe one of my most favorite foods ever now.  I know that is a bold statement but maybe I have been spoiled by the most delish falafel place ever... L'as de Falafel. This little place is located in the Marais ( a great place to find Jewish bakeries, lots of little shops and very cool and confusing side streets) and people actually line up outside the street to eat there. While you wait in line you can check out the pictures of Lenny Kravitz - apparently a regular whenever he is in the city. Today I ventured there for a pre-movie lunch and despite the POURING rain and chilly temperatures there was a sea of umbrellas waiting to be seated in the packed to the brim restaurant. Even thought my toes were soggy (I solved this problem by purchasing wool socks after lunch) the wait was beyond worth it. I left with one happy belly!!!

Yeah ... you know you want some. SO GOOD.
