I used to eat it all the time when I lived in Israel. Did you know that Israelis add french fries to their falafel filled pita pockets? It's amazing! I love falafel.

I agree with you that it looks rather unappetizing, but thanks to your post, Lori... ...I'm about the rush to the nearest kebab stall here in Roma, to try those chickpea treats you wrote about!

Not surprising, since I haven't yet met a form of garbanzos I don't like. Speaking of garbanzos and France, I SO want to try socca -- a sort of savory pancake made from chick peas that's a regional specialty of Nice. I'm positive I'd love it!
