What are the health benefits of
chickpeas? |
|
 |
Chickpeas are our number one
ingredient. They are a super healthy
legume, packed with plenty of
proteins, minerals and vitamin B.
They are also a great source of
cholesterol-lowering fiber,
antioxidants, iron, phosphorus, folate and zinc. To top that, the
high fiber content in chickpeas
helps maintain blood sugar levels
after eating.

The
first restaurant opened in Manhattan
in the summer of 1997. With our

store drew locals and travelers
alike, and thereafter, became the go

Middle East. Since then, our name is
recognized for our falafel & hummus.
We are dedicated to offering the
