A disappointing FalafelI'd arranged to go to a Spanish /English language exchange with a friend, which happened to be near by one of my fave falafel haunts in Bristol. Admittedly in fact it was one of the reasons I'd decided to make the trek over to stokes croft, the close proximity to delicious falafel-y goodness.... Continue Reading →
Falafel in the time of corona virus
By anonymous. N. B this was written BEFORE the outbreak in Spain and subsequent lock down in all European countries. Stay tuned for quarantine falafel updates next week. After yet another sodden, freezing and windy week in London (storms Ciara, Dennis and Jorge had visited) combined with toilet-paper hoarding Coronavirus mass panic, I boarded an... Continue Reading →
What the falafel? End of year falafel 2019
It's been a busy old year and as a result, falafel has had to take a back seat. I know, I know, must reassess my priorities in 2020 and get back on the falafel wagon.

View from a professional – Mezze Palace
Well, we're all pro's at falafel I suppose, but I was dining this time with my professional chef friend, who made falafel for a living! Double dining. A cutesy couple-y double date - dinner and a (shit) movie. Our other friends had reacted in disgust when we told them, and one of them (recently single)... Continue Reading →
Cafe Revival
It had been a weird day and it was only 3pm. I had woken up early to get some work done on the millions of essays I had to give in (6 actually) but got instantly distracted by checking our Twitter. I was disappointed to see that our high of 65 followers had dwindled to... Continue Reading →
ASDA Vs “Second House Products”
Times are tough in the ratemyfalafel.com household. How were we to know that not paying our council tax bill since October would result in us having to pay a massive amount all at once? We had to tighten our belts. It was packet bought, value falafel for us. We decided to have a falafel off,... Continue Reading →
My pitta overfloweth (and not in a good way)
The first thing I noticed when I unwrapped my falafel from its neat little bag was that the “pitta” it was in looked nothing like any pitta I’d had before...
Rate My Falafel Does Social Media
Two years of RATE MY FALAFEL has passed. Two glorious falafel-ly years. It was time to go SOCIAL MEDIA. That's right, we at RATEMYFALAFEL.COM have got our very own Twitter and Instagram!!! Now, I'm not one of those old fashioned stick in the mud type people who REFUSE to move with the times, but as... Continue Reading →
