Maoz


So as promised, I wanted to write a bit about possibly the tastiest discovery I've (and when I say I, I mean Austin) made in Madrid: Maoz.

So what is Maoz?

It's a little falafel restaurant (although I'm hesitant to use this word cuz it implies a sort of sit-down bougieness that just doesn't exist there). Right off of the Plaza at Sol. [c/ Mayor 4] Yes, I know. It doesn't get any more touristy than Sol BUT if that's what it takes to find a legit vegetarian joint in this city then so be it. So for 3.50 Euro (or 4.50ish if you wanna splurge and get some guacamole that is ON POINT) you get a pita pocket with fresh falafel, a plethora of options for toppings (couscous, chickpeas, carrots, cauliflower, green chili sauce, tomato and onion, baba-ganoush, lettuce, mixed olives - really the list goes on and on) tahini/yogurt sauce and FREE REFILLS! No jokes, lies or deception. Buffet libre.

Now I just want to know why isn't there a Maoz on every college campus?? [Or rather every street corner...]

But. If you happen to stroll through Madrid sometime this next year and I'm nowhere to be found. Chances are I'm at Maoz with the MT gorging ourselves with cheap, fresh VEGETARIAN deliciousness.


And if I've tempted your tastebuds, peep their website atttttttt: http://www.maozusa.com/
