The Block Food Park

Great place and service

Very good option for something different.

I think this place is pretty fun. Generally the girl and I like to stop by and let our young gun let loose some of that explosive energy on the playground while we grab a few falafels. Did you know that falafels and garbanzo beans are one of the rare foods that we can still find and work into our diets that are high in magnesium? With the heavily enriched and processed modern diet, over half of Americans and Europeans are deficient in their magnesium blood levels. I thought this was even more telling when I found out that people with low levels of magnesium are more likely to suffer from depression, diabetes, high triglyceride levels, high blood pressure, high levels of stress hormones, and obesity. BUT I DIGRESS...magnesium is good stuff and you can probably find it in the falafels here but in all reality the best aspect of the falafels that I’ve tried from Falafel N Load is the way that I can eat a meal that is good for me and yet I actually enjoy it. If you told me a falafel happens when you throw a bunch of chickpeas in a pita and toss it with yogurt, I’d never try one. But if you told me a falafel is the combination of fresh hummus featuring a double portion of coarsely ground, flavor packed, protein-rich Chickpea beans that have been deep fried until the resulting nuggets of beans and fragrant herbs are encased in a satisfyingly crunchy shell that is delicious and filling without feeling heavy... and then tossed with a zesty combination of yogurt, salt, cucumbers, brightly flavored spices and vinaigrette, olive oil and other ingredients and the whole thing is loaded into a large soft pita bread pocket...I’d bite. Then I’d tell you to stop using such wordy run-on sentences in your description. But I find it difficult to explain why I like this spot so much. Maybe it is just the combination of a chill, local vibe that isn’t too try-hard, the options available (the churro truck next door is LIT ????!), the energy absorbing jungle gym, and the fact that the people who run these trucks are friendly and knowledgeable and you can see (and taste) the results of their passion for their job in their food. Oh, and they have a falafel taco that costs 2.54 in the perfect mix of fusion food and clever pricing that could fail horribly but ends up feeling perfectly Waco as you watch the sun set over the fairgrounds on a lazy Saturday evening.
