I Dream of Falafel... and Chicken Sharwerma

I Dream of Falafel on Franklin near Jackson St. is a foodie’s lunchtime dream come true. Mediterranean quick-service competitors Roti and Benjyehuda are nearby, but patronize those locations for excellent salads and crispy fries, respectively. I Dream of Falafel will transform your lunch hour if you are craving smooth hummus, firm falafel, or flavorful shawerma.  

The I Dream of Falafel menu is a simple three-step process to chicken shawerma, beef shawerma, and falafel heaven. My favorite way to enjoy their culinary delights is with a bed of hummus topped with chicken shawerma and falafel, finished with tahini, lettuce, tomato, and cucumbers.

A recent lunch consumption breakdown went as follows: The hummus with a hint of olive oil and garlic was as smooth as whipped butter. It was incredibly tasty and acted as the perfect partner to the chicken shawerma and falafel. In fact, I’d liken the bed of hummus to warm blankets on a cold winter night... an optimal situation to most enjoy life. The falafel pieces were firm with a soft, fluffy texture on the inside. When paired with a little humus and scooped up by a pita, I Dream of Falafel’s signature food created chickpea bliss!

The dreamiest part of the meal, however, was the chicken shawerma. The tender pieces of chicken breast and thigh meat were juicy, well cooked, and robust with flavors of olive oil and a hint of creamy curry. Each bite was divine- forked up drenched in hummus, enjoyably consumed as shawerma solo, or wrapped in a warm pita- the morsels of chicken shawerma were a culinary intoxication.

I Dream of Falafel offers a variety of sauces from raita to spicy tomato for your palate’s delight.  It’s enough food that most people could enjoy this lunch for two days instead of just one. After lunching, you’ll understand why it is aptly named….I Dream of Falafel (and chicken shawerma)!

Oasis Cafe at the back of a jeweler on Wabash should also be on your short list.

Possibly God desires us to satisfy a couple of unsuitable folks prior to assembly the fitting a single in order that after we last but not least connect the correct man or woman, we'll know the right way to be thankful for that reward.

I need help. I just started a new job as EA to an executive. I will manage his TripIt account under his name. I'm trying to add accounts and continue to get exclamation marks after waiting for a long period on "we are updating your account activity" I assume the account number asked is the Mileage / Program Number and the PIN number is a PW? I cannot update old accounts or add new accounts. I'm I correct to say, if the carrier is not a partner with TripIt, I need to manually add the account and information in? I'm confused, help please!!! Thank you!!!
