The best street food venues of type "Levante cuisine" in Germany
Hummus for the advanced. The chickpea puree flavoured with olive oil and tahini is served here with a silky-smooth texture and outstanding combinations. Shakshuka is served on Saturdays from 12 noon to 5 pm, and a "hummus of the week" provides fun, enjoyment and excitement.
This sabich shop in Kreuzberg has just four indoor seats and just as many dishes on the menu. It's best not to plan a visit here in the pouring rain or when short on time. It's worth the extra planning for one of the best sandwiches in town!
At Barena, Persian hospitality meets flavoursome variety: generous portions, fresh herbs and an inviting atmosphere make the restaurant the ideal place for authentic enjoyment. Delicious: minced meat skewers, saffron rice with chicken or doogh, a yoghurt drink.
Arabic snack bar with first-class spit-roasted specialities. The star here, as the name suggests, is the very well-seasoned shawarma rolled in thin flatbread with pickled vegetables, a popular Levantine street food classic. Good: chicken. Even better: lamb.
Mia and Rouven serve Israeli soul food at Mühlenkamp: mezze with hummus and falafel, shakshuka with feta snow, sabich or roasted cauliflower with avocado cream. All fresh, some vegan, some with organic kofta, shawarma, shrimps or lamb. Cosy ambience. Simply top!
eyal impresses with modern Levantine cuisine that is not only flavourful but also visually stunning. The atmosphere invites you to share the artfully prepared dishes - falafel and harissa cauliflower are highlights not to be missed.
At Zaya Jerjis in the east of Stuttgart, you can take a quick approach and simply order a falafel sandwich. But if you want to immerse yourself in the finer points of Arabic cuisine, take your time and have specialities such as mansaf or freekeh explained to you after your starter plate.
If you can manage the balancing act between fish & chips and hummus & naan so elegantly that you never for a second wonder what the one has to do with the other in gastronomic terms, you're doing something right. So let's go for oriental mezze and the British classic.
A tastefully designed restaurant that is entirely dedicated to Levantine cuisine with Mediterranean accents. Some dishes are vegetarian and vegan, but the menu also includes Piedmontese saddle of veal, crispy chicken and succulent halibut with saffron.
A touch of the Orient wafts through the authentic Arabic ambience of Ensan Hanafy's smart restaurant. The hot and cold Lebanese starters are served with fresh flatbread, the attractive main courses with rice and a first-class garlic cream.
If you want to organise your evening in a sensible way, reserve a table on the terrace for yourself and your friends, then order mezze for everyone and, because you don't treat yourself to anything else, a fine bottle of wine. The grilled watermelon is a must.
Elisabeth Market may be geographically located in Schwabing. But when you bite into the sabich pitta, you know that you've actually landed in Tel Aviv. The creaminess of the hummus, the crunch of the falafel and the acidity of the pickled vegetables make every bite an experience.
Lebanese street food at its best. The rolling food truck not only delights with a fabulously juicy chicken shawarma, but also great falafel and kibbeh, creamy hummus and smoky baba ghanoush as well as various vegetable salads, sauces and dips.
A little off the beaten track of bustling Bergmannstraße, this Lebanese snack bar is a real insider tip. Whether falafel or shawarma, plate or sandwich, the ingredients are fresh, the sauces homemade and the first bite is usually a real revelation.
Snack bar with a heart in a prime location in the old town and therefore a pub: open daily until shortly after midnight and even into the early hours of the morning on Saturdays. Favourites: Lebanese-style falafel makali with aubergines, cauliflower and beetroot and shawarma.
Fresh mint, crispy falafel, creamy baba ghanoush - at BeirutBeirut, Lebanese cuisine tastes like a perfect day. So good, in fact, that you'll want to take something home with you after your meal. For example, a "mutabal sandwich" with delicious beetroot cream.
Shalom and Servus are the greetings in Maxvorstadt. Anyone who has ever tried the shakshuka at Eclipse knows how good it tastes together. And if you only like it when it's fresh from the grill, try the "Hazil Habait", or grilled aubergine.
An Israeli deli in a wood-panelled old building with wonderful dishes to share. Highlights include the sabich plate, roasted cauliflower, hummus and challah bread. There is also a small but fine selection of drinks and wines. Perfect for a relaxed dinner!
First-class falafel and shawarma can be found at Nabil in Prenzlauer Berg. You can get them on their own or in combination with makali, deep-fried vegetables, either as a sandwich or as a sumptuous plate with salad, hummus and various sauces. In summer, you can also sit outside.
Good humour has a home. It's called Sababa and is located on the Viktualienmarkt. Not only are the guys in a good mood, they also fry up the best falafel in town here. If you like, you can also ask for halloumi with extra sauce and squeak happily through the market.
