13. Not super hot. Not really 'rich spicy' like Indian food either. |
|
More like garlic with a dash of ground red pepper spicy.

16. It's usually eaten in a stuff piece of pita bread. |
|
With some hummus and shredded lettuce and maybe a little onion and a white sauce called tahini, which is made mostly of seseme seed paste.
It's very, very good. Quite filling and very healthy.

20. If not at a middle eastern restaurant... |
|
...then in a grocery store with an ethnic foods aisle, there are "instant" falafel mixes. Just add water, shape into patties and fry or bake. I KNOW the Central Market would have some, but regular HEB's might as well. If you have a Mediterranean grocery store, you can get the real thing.

An arab and a jew sitting next to each other on a bench.
One says to the other, "Why can't we just concentrate on what brings us together? ... Like Falafel!"

18. Nowhere special, just Bread and Circus :) |

There are some places around Boston, but I know them more by location than name.
