For the price and variety of options, Fafa’s is a great fast food option without being overly fussy. The portion feels digestible for one. Can only see this chain expand more.

Ok for the price. Best part was the amount of food, and one salad. The pitas were quite average, one of them had fried Eggplant and had huge excess of oil. Worst part was the place itself: they must have some problem with the extraction, or not have it at all, and the air was«foggy» with all the smoke from the frying oil. For this reason the door was completely open(in January), so it was quite cold.

This place is more bigger than Iso Roba’s Fafas. The best falafel in the town. The pricesare not bad and it’s really huge portion. I think that the best drink with your falafel is Club-Mate. So. Cheers!

Im a huge fan of Pilpel, which is a Israeli falafel shop in London. So when I learned from my colleague that there’s a falafel shop with a similar concept in Helsinki, I begged him to try it out right away. Fafa now has several locations in Helsinki and we went to their latest venture — the shop located near Kamppi. I was very happy to see a Sabich salad featured on the menu; Sabich means typically the addition of aubergines and boiled eggs to the pita or salad. I went for the spicy option and was positively surprised by the genuine kick that the chilli sauce added. My colleague went for the«normal» falafel pita sandwich. My salad was ok to good — flavourwise it was spot on, but I disliked the fact that they puffed up the salad with too much lettuce. Now, don’t get me wrong: I ordered a salad after all and now I’m complaining about too much lettuce? — Well, as I mentioned earlier I love the Pilpel chain in London and when they do these kinds of salads, actual lettuce is only part of the equation and the rest is made up of spiced cabbage(both white and red), tomatoes, hummus, onions etc. My colleague was mightily happy with his falafel pita/sandwich and I have to say it looked quite delicious. Overall, I was quite happy with my visit here… and I will definitely return when I visit Helsinki next time.(Oh, only this time I will not sit in, as the smell of fried falafels really stays in your clothes for quite a while ;-)
