fann ul-falafil
We are proud to feature in the
Falafel Road project. The artists, Oreet Ashery and Larissa Sansour, have seized on falafel's symbolism of the contested identity of Palestine (being first Palestinian, then given a new Israeli identity). Falafel Road consists of 20 meals: a kind of politically-engaged falafel-crawl, that takes in two of our outlets, including
Whitecross Street which the snackers seem to have found inspiring. Hoxton Beach also supplied a large number of falafels as a kind of installation at the finale at
Toynbee Studios. Historic note: we handed out leaflets describing our first ever sampling, in the now-defunct City/Old Street Fresh and Wild as 'fann ul falafel' -- Arabic for 'the art of falafel'.
