Some restrictions applyMamoun’s legendary falafel recipe starts with finely ground chickpeas and lots of parsley, mixed with onions, garlic, and a blend of spices including cumin, turmeric, and cardamom. They’re formed into balls, fried, and tucked into a fresh-baked pita along with homemade hummus, baba ganouj, tahineh sauce, pickled veggies, and a splash of hot sauce!
Founded in 1971 as a tiny Greenwich Village hole-in-the-wall by Syrian immigrant Mamoun Chater, the unassuming Mamoun’s still draws hungry locals, NYU students, and tourists for a taste of what many agree is the absolute best falafel in America.Mamoun’s sons have kept his recipes exactly the same – it’s all made from scratch using only the freshest natural ingredients and the finest imported spices. Millions have made the pilgrimage to NYC’s original falafel stand in the past 50-plus years, and it’s finally shipping nationwide!
