Falafel Taco

It must have been love that brought falafels and tacos together. Who would have thought that a Jewish chef and a lovely Mexican lady would end up combining the better of two cultures into one kitchen? It was the blending of their families that brought this combination as a chef flavors, aromas, textures and exotic ingredients was an inspiration. They daydreamed about opening a taco shop. However, when Astrid said she was a vegan, there was a struggle to cook for the family. Eventually, they started making falafels with fresh bread, and homemade tahini, latkes with fresh guacamole, and Mexican matzo ball soup. "It was a hit!" The fusion of Mexican and Israeli food was born. Then came the search for a name. Rosie's daughter, Andrea, came up with Falafel Taco and its moniker, MexRaeli cuisine.
