You could make it at home, its very easy, and takes 10 min max (including frying)

Great to hear about some places where you can get falafel. I should try them out. I tried falafel at Ne Fish once but it was really not like the egyptian falafel. I dont advice anyone to try it there.
Oh and Noubia... I guess we are 21/2 egyptians in turkey now as i am half egyptian.

I had some pretty tasty falafel last week at a small cafe in Taksim called 'Şiirci.' It is on a parallel street to Istiklal called 'Süslü Saksı' Sokak. (On the Tarlabası side, or right side, as you are walking down towards Galatasaray. A few minutes walk from the Bakırköy, etc, dolmuşes).
The meze plate was also delicious. It was owner-operated and service was excellent.
