FOR THE LOVE OF CHICKPEA

As children, we lived off of our grandmother's falafel and hummus. When we moved to Austin, we burned, we pined, we perished for her exceptional cooking. Thus began our passion project - Chickpea.

​

Our falafel and hummus recipe has been in the family for 5 generations - guaranteed to transport you, as it does us, to the streets of Palestine. One bite will transform your definition of authentic falafel and hummus. But we couldn't stop there. To bring to life the chickpea, we bake our bread on-site to pillowy perfection.

​

As much as we love our grandmothers (which is a lot), we love Mother Earth, the grandmother of all, even more. In that vein, we use only organic ingredients, are proudly plastic-free, and pursue the cultivation of our wildlife habitat. In the wise words of Sir David Attenborough, “the greater the biodiversity, the more secure will be all life on Earth.” Mother Earth will remain, whether we as mankind continue with her is up to us.

 

For the love of Chickpea and our Pale Blue Dot, we are on a mission to introduce authentic falafel and hummus to Austin in alignment with and service of Mother Earth.
