babaganoush – ME SO HUNGRY

Oasis Williamsburg – Falafel Sandwiches

After our friends Ape School played at Brooklyn Bowl, we stopped by Oasis right next to the Bedford L stop. Perfect place to fill up your drunk stomach on a Falafel Sandwich. Only $3.

When we came in, the falafel guys were about to kick my friends out. Rusty walked in and dropped his phone and the case broke into pieces everywhere …and then he just hung out by the door, trying to prop himself up on the counter. The falafel guys were like “Hey, what you do want?!” and the older guy’s face was pissed off like he was about to bring a bat out. I had to tell them that I’m ordering for them (my friends). Dang. But understandably, they probably deal with drunk assholes every night right there off the Bedford stop.

Anyway, I really like the Falafel Sandwich here. It’s packed in size and in flavor. Asking for it spicy has a good kick. The Baba Ghanoush Sandwich is also really good …also only $3.

Cheburechnaya’s Lamb Testicles, Heart and Fried Beef Brains

Yoshie’s Ramen and Friends adventure took us to Cheburechnaya (Kosher Russian) in Rego Park, Queens. This is where we ate Lamb Testicles, Heart and Fried Beef Brains…

It was pretty confusing ordering these. I couldn’t tell how many came in an order. We almost got five orders of Testicles, which would have been 25 balls. That would have been too way many balls. We just got one.

They had other stuff too …like this huge bowl shaped bread, called Noni Toki. It was almost like matzoh. Their Uzbeki style bread was good for the Hummus and Babaganoush.

They served many different types of Chebureki and Samcy patties. We had the ones with pumpkin and ribs. There were real ribs with bones. I liked those a lot.

I recommend the Whole Grilled Chicken. That was really good for sounding so tame (unlike the testicles). I would have been interested in the Lamb Fat and Veal Sweetbread Shish Kebabs if we were to order more.

Really cool restaurant. I enjoyed pretty much everything, even the balls. They even played Sade via Youtube on the TVs the whole night.
