Big falafel, low price at Ramat Gan stall

A food writer says the falafel at "Kadur HaZahav" in Ramat Gan is not a special introductory offer, but the stall’s regular pricing: 18 shekels for a falafel pita and 22 shekels for sabich. He calls it one of the better-priced falafel spots around Tel Aviv and says the balls are the largest he has encountered.

He learned about the place from a customer who lives on Yosef HaGelili Street and praised both the shop and its owner. The writer later stopped by while driving on Jabotinsky Street in Ramat Gan, near the descent toward Ben Gurion Junction, and ordered a falafel. He notes that the falafel is made fresh on the spot for each order, with no ready-made balls waiting.

The stall serves a large pita with simple, fresh salads, including pickled cabbage, fresh vegetable salad and chopped green peppers. The writer asked for only the chopped green peppers to be added, and says that is exactly what he received. He also mentions that another customer suggested trying the falafel in spelt pita, but he preferred the regular pita, saying it is larger.

According to the review, the balls are huge, green inside, well seasoned, fresh, and very tasty, with a crisp exterior rather than a hard one. The writer concludes that the sandwich is filling, long lines are justified, and anyone wanting good, inexpensive falafel should go to Kadur HaZahav.
