The best Falafels in Malmö -- even Nina Persson of the Cardigans says so. But for the longest time…read moreI always got the kebab at Falafel No. 1.
My first kebab experience was in Lund - served more like a cone, it had kebab meat, onion, tomato, salad and blended sauce (spicy and garlic). So when I tasted a crazy little pickle in that first bite of my kebab from Falafel No. 1, I didn't know what to think. Was this a single rogue pickle that found its way into my kebab rulle? Or were there...MORE?
Oh, little pickle.... How I doubted you in that first bite.
A little Tiffany Food-Quirk background.... I love pickles. However, whenever I find them on sandwiches, burgers, and pretty much everything that can contain a pickle, I usually pick them out and eat them. Separately. It's just what I do.
Except at Falafel No. 1. These pickles just... work. Together.
Lately, I've been ordering the the falafel and tabouli roll. The tabouli is really good and fresh, with just the right amount of lemon and mint. The falafels are always hot and crispy on the outside, never soggy. If you order falafels separately, they're 2kr a piece and you often get a few bonus.
The gentlemen behind the counter making your food are always willing to accommodate "no's" and "extra's". And if you're lucky, you'll get to hear them sing along to the music.
I lived across the street from Falafel No. 1 for 2 years. The food is fantastic, inexpensive, and always served with a smile. While this is fast food, and it probably meant my husband and I were working late and neither one of us had the time to cook or do dishes... I was proud to have this be my neighborhood falafel shop.
