If you’re having trouble finding it, just look for the line of Brown students snaking out the door, almost onto Thayer Street. It’s worth the lunchtime wait to wrap your hands around one of East Side Pockets’ falafel or kabob wraps—which will overflow with a flavorful mix of tahini, hot sauce, hummus, hot peppers, pickles, and more, if you order it with everything (as you should). Owner Paul Boutros has been living in the States for decades, but still stays true to the falafel recipe he learned from his dad, who served the chickpea fritters for a living in Syria before the family moved here.
