Moshe’s Falafel Raises Prices
After a giving up fried foods for Lent, I had a post-Easter hankering for falafel, so I headed over to 46th street to hit up Moshe’s Falafel just back from their Passover hiatus. While waiting to place my order discovered that they’ve raised their prices across the board.
My go to order–4 falafel balls with tahina, hot sauce, and pickles is now $2.50, up from $2.00. Falafel sandwiches will now run you $5.25 up from $4.75. Prices for French fries and soup have both increased 50 cents will cost you $3.25 and $4.35 respectively.
Zach’s wasn’t a huge Moshe’s fan because of their sandwich layering problems, but I’ve always just gone for the side order of falafel and added it to my own bread or pita from home so I haven’t encountered the same trouble. Even with the 50 cents increase, $2.50 for crispy falafel, plenty of sauce and pickles is still a steal in my book. Any longtime Moshe’s fans care to weigh in?

Rising cost of ingredients…? In a deflationary low-rates environment? Rubbish!
This is just their attempt to stockpile funding to prepare for the spring offensive by the Hallo berlin cart and the Schnitzel Truck. Although an undeclared nuclear power, Moshe clearly wants to ward them off with conventional weapons…and are stockpiling falafel balls. Hopefully they will not escalate this and resort to chemical weapons (their lethal methane-inducing hummous & babaganoush)
