Crunchy, herby-green falafels, fluffy on the inside, are Khamsa’s claim to fame and have remained on the menu as the family-owned cafe transitioned to a bigger space in St Peters this year. But it’s the Palestinian bagels (ka’ak al quds) which deserve more attention: soft and light and packed with pickled purple cabbage, tahini, tomato, cucumber and, yes, a handful of falafel. Order with iced hibiscus tea and a cardamon scroll, or come with friends to feast on the 20-strong share plate menu.
