Xinyi District, Taipei City｜波 WAVE Jaffa Cuisine Lab

Authentic taste, good service, casual setting. One of the best falafel I've had. Soft and moist on the inside. The mashed chickpea in the hummus is as fine as the Turkish coffee ground. Pita bread is served hot. The kitchen stays open in the afternoon. Will be back.

Hummus does exist in Taiwan! I had given up. I’ve tried countless times to find it; this is it. The food is outstanding; try the falafel and chicken. The vibe in the restaurant is cool; good music, good design. Don’t miss it. Make a reservation.

From the warm ambiance to the vibrant flavors, every aspect of this establishment was carefully crafted to transport guests to the enchanting world of Israeli cuisine in a very laid-back setting. The menu presented an array of tantalizing dishes, each reflecting the rich and diverse culinary heritage of Israel. Their passion for the cuisine was evident, and it added an extra layer of authenticity to the overall experience. To start my culinary adventure, I ordered a plate of freshly baked, fluffy pita bread accompanied by an assortment of vibrant dips. The silky smooth hummus, smoky baba ganoush, and tangy tahini were all bursting with flavors that danced on my palate. The mezze platter, featuring an assortment of side dishes like falafels and Israeli salads, was true feast for the senses. Each bite was a delightful combination of textures and tastes, showcasing the artistry of the chefs. For the main course, I indulged in a traditional Israeli dish called shakshuka. The perfectly poached eggs nestled in a bed of tomato sauce, spiced with aromatic herbs and spices, created a symphony of flavors that left me craving for more. Overall, my experience at this Israeli restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. Definitely will come back again!
