Broke in Berlin # 13
There was this place right around the corner, damn I forget the name, maybe Lady Daisey will comment it on here for us . . . but anyway they had the illest Tabouleh – doods would hook it up with extra Olive oil and lemon juice to order – - I copped it about 6 times – ha! I loved it best with the veggie pita, or as seen here, with the fresh falafel! (This one was delicious):
Fresh Falafel and Tabouleh - A Good combination
Fresh Falafel and Tabouleh - A Good combination
(Heads up – Tabouleh is generally cucumber, parsley, lemon, garlic, olive oil, and tomato)
Filling up between verses! Shout out to Frank Falalfel!

Broke in Berlin # 7
It was bound to happen. When you’re broke in Berlin, sometimes you have to roll with the punches and just eat what you see while walking home at 4 in the morning after watching Lady Daisey sing her ASS off at Bohannon! Now generally, this is where Berlin cuisine shines – late nite street food – and especially the Middle Eastern spots. I knew that a phenomenal falafel (say that out loud please) was only a block or two away. Damn yo. I was wrong.
This is a Fala"failure"
- The Falafel was microwaved when I ordered it (at 4 am) – understandable cause it was so late . . but damn . . the microwave?!
- The Garlic Sauce was wack sauce son! I was tasting that wackness the next day . . .
- The lettuce und salat was kinda wilty . . .
- And wayyy to much onion – I like onion – but damn!
FAILURE!
