I think it is the simplest things in life that make me the happiest. Like sunshine, bike rides, the smell of spring, laughing...you know what I mean?!!
The simplest foods are certainly the best kinds in my book. I don't need abstract layers of flavor and "fuss" when you have something healthy and delightful. Case in point. Falafel. Maoz does it right. With the perfect amount of spice in those little fried chickpea balls that kick it up just a notch or two (sorry for sounds like Emeril).
And the unlimited salad bar...oh that salad bar...it is paradise! Being able to control the building of your falafel sandwich is amazing. I pile high on all the fixins' you could imagine and usually go back for more before I even dive into the falafel. The salad bar is so fresh and delicious, can you really blame me? No. You can't. Silly me for asking.
The only downer is that most Maoz locations are really small. So if it is busy you will have to wait to sit and indulge or take your pita elsewhere. Some people probably think the lime green walls are a little much but I enjoy the bright atmosphere and actually being able to get a good look at what I am eating.
So, the pluses i think outweigh any of the minuses at Mazo and would recommend to friends.
