Have it your way at this build-your-own falafel joint.. This mod counter-service spot in Lakeview has hit on a sweet, simple niche concept: build-your-own falafel. "Falafill" sandwiches come on white or wheat pita with a choice of add-on spreads, including hummus and a roasted red pepper and walnut spread called muhammara. Over on the 20-option, all-you-can-cram topping bar, tempting tastes range from classic (tahini, Jerusalem salad, harissa) to out-there (pickled mango, Tunisian carrot salad, beets and a garlic sauce called toum). Skin-on fries--sweet potato, regular or mixed--are the only side option, but condiment options like harissa ketchup, malt vinegar and garlic aioli keep the customization going.
