    The Saturday Market by St Nicholas' Church.

    Also, go to the crepe man and have a Big Mick. They ooze excellence.

    The Charcoal Grill does falafel kebabs if you're hankering for midweek falafel... I'm not enough of a falafel connoisseur to say whether its any good :pac:

    Great sit-down meal for 7-8 euro though.

    I've never been sober enough when I've gone there to tell if it was any good.

    Falafel are like mini-vegetarian burgers made of chick peas. Originally from the middle-east. Yum yum.

    LOL +1

    Also a +1 on the market and on Mustards contribution to the world of chickpea delights. Though find they can be heavy-handed in their use of the devils herb coriander in the garnishing... but will omit on request, praise Allah!!

    Charcoal I find overcook our bundles of joy. Bit too armadillo-esque, crunchy on the outside, smooth on the inside...

    Biko you've just brought on some pre elevenses snacking with that pic.

    Mmmm....

    The eastern takeaway on Cross Street does them. Opposite River deep Mountain high. I never tried them there but their kebabs are good. They are all middle eastern so I suppose they know their falafel.

    The falafal in the market is good, yes, but eat matar paneer/kichiri/samosa with tomato chutney from the Govindas stall. MMMMmmmMMmmmm
