This weekend is Yom Kippur. And I'm not even Jewish! The real question is where can you get the best hummus in Midtown. Taam Tov is the best I know, but I've kind of od'd on the place. If there only was a place like Mimi's Hummus in Brooklyn.... Hey, Rosh Hashanah isn’t this weekend–it was last! This weekend is Yom Kippur. And I’m not even Jewish!

I would love to go back since the place is steps from my office but i just can't do it after that experience. Instead I get my falafel from the truck on 40th btw 6th and 7th or on 9th across from 2 bros pizza. not kosher, but not an issue for me. ok, maybe he wasn’t the owner, but he was definitely the one with the authority that day.

It was not in my mind worth paying so much more just for the rice and they limited it to me not getting everything I would normally shove into the sandwhich. From that point on I stuck to just the sandwhich. I have not gone back to them since i found out about Little Morroco cart who makes a pretty tasty facsimilie. Also, they used to run out of alot of the salads early in the day, so maybe they were just trying to stretch the supply so everyone could get a full meal versus one person having extra tomato. Most of these places make tha major part of the revenue for the day between 11:45 and 1:45 so they probably have it down to a science of what to prepare and not put food to waste. @klaus ok: I havent been to the new location, but when they were in the loading dock -they would always give out free falafel balls, give me the other toppings on the side becuase they would not fit in my sandwhich, etc. However, the one time I did order the platter, I felt really ripped off.
