Question. I see so many Middle Eastern & Hispanic people working in the corner bodegas in my hood, and it is basically no Mexican or Middle Eastern food spots. Do you know how much I crave a Falafel sometime or even just a basic Burrito. I live near Nostrand & St. MArks ave. does anyone know of a spot I may have missed. I've done some pretty hardcore searches on the internet. :cry:

    Try Zaytoons

    594 Vanderbilt Ave
    (between Bergen St & Dean St)

    Not Crown Heights but close, the food is okay.

    For Mexican go for Taqueria De Los Muertos, 663 Washington, or Chavella's, 732 Classon.

    the google gives me
    Sabah Falafel
    1166 Nostrand Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11225 (Cross street: Rutland Rd)
    but no personal experience...

    Every other Jewish nabe has great falafel, so there must be...somewhere...

    Try going up Kingston after you cross EP. That's really the heart of the Hassidic area and you may be able to find falafel there...

    Check out Chavellas on Classon Ave tween Park and Prospect Aves for good Mexican. I think they have a website. I ate there when they first opened.Cant recall if they do burritos but their food is very very good.Cant help you with falafels unless you travel over to Clinton Hill. A new falafel spot just opened on Myrtle between Clinton and Vanderbilt Aves.If not Zaytoons on Vanderbilt Ave. They also have a Zaytoons on Myrtle bet Washington and Hall, about 4 blocks from the falafel spot.There is a Burrito Bar on Flatbush Ave and Prospect Ave if you dont mind the trek .

    Teddy's on Washington has falafal.

    For Mexican, Chevellas is to die for ... and Los Muertas on Washington Ave is good too.

    Every once-in-awhile there is a falafal cart on the corner of Bedford and Crown. I think he is there mostly when the college kids are there too... I haven't tried his food but it smells good.
