Look no farther than the fantastic falafel stands on rue de Rosiers for some of the cheapest and tastiest meals in Paris: L'As (the Ace) is widely considered the best of the bunch. A falafel costs EUR5, but shell out a little extra money for the spécial with grilled eggplant, cabbage, hummus, tahini, and hot sauce. Though takeout is popular, it can be more fun to eat off a plastic plate in the frenetic but fascinating dining room. The fresh lemonade is the falafel's best match. Reservations essential. Métro: St-Paul.
