Not-uh. That place is Tuh-errible. In fact, one of Zach's write-ups on it made me 1. go to B&O and 2. write into Zach to ask WTF was up with his positive write-up. Sour sourness. Lemon-drenched salad greens, sour hummus, runny (and sour) baba ganouj and rock-hard, sandy falafel on cold, brittle pita. Damn. Okay. I've officially said my peace on B&O. Over and out.

It's really dry and tastes very different from traditional middle eastern falafel. Chef Rahman makes his falafel Bengali style. As long as people know this, eat away.

Bread & Olives too, as a backup when the Kwik Meal line is too long.... Although better known for their delicious lamb pita, Kwik Meal also makes a fine falafel.

Best in that 5-block radius. I like the falafel at the cart on the SW corner of 55th and Mad. Best in that 5-block radius.

Also, they've raised their prices by 50-60 cents (probably to pay for their renovations). The awesome gyro is now over 5 bucks with tax! The horror!

They have a bad-ass relish bar full of garlicky shaved jalapenos, cole slaw, diced marinated cucumbers, olives and all that good stuff to accompany your sandwich. Heartburn heaven. Hey, Dirty,
