Bi-Rite Creamery north america california Known as ‘the favorite scoop in the city’, the Bi-Rite Creamery is a paradise for lovers of the creamy cone.

But fortunately, there’s always a queue (even in the dead of winter!) so you’ll have plenty of time to decide.

L’As du Fallafel Walk past the imitators and line up for this legendary Falafel on a Paris back street any day but Saturday. You could eat any of the ingredients by themselves but why would you? This overflowing sandwich is simply perfect. First try it as served and then with each of the green and red sauces to start a debate about which is best. Everyone is a winner at this stunning example of a classic sandwich. RESTAURANT INFO Image courtesy of gilliehouston
