V-Rating: Super V Shopping centres are like suburban purgatory. After half an hour I’m lost, cranky and over-stimulated. I start wandering fruitlessly, scared of encounters with fluorescent lights and overly attentive sales assistants. Then I get lost again, mostly when I’m desperate to leave. Amongst the nine circles of shopping mall hell, the food court has to rate near the bottom. Fried food smells, squished leftovers on the table, and screaming kids make me crazy. That’s why I couldn’t believe my luck when I discovered Yummba in the Westfield Bondi Junction food court. Yummba is not your typical food court offering. First off, it’s a vegetarian. Second, the food tastes great. Third, all the food, including a range of dips, is made fresh daily.
If you’re not up for a roll you can try the mezze or dip plates. Dare you to try the large size. I’ve had two tries with help and haven’t finished one yet.

[…] I didn’t have cravings for specific foods when I was pregnant but there were two particular meals I could have eaten by the bucketful. The first was the felafel pitta rolls from Yummba in Bondi Junction (miles away from where I live, being pregnant put the strength of Hercules in me to trek out to this place at least once a week, at one stage I got so desperate I wanted to kidnap the owner and his felafel-making machine).

Yummba is well named. It’s the yummiest felafel in Sydney. I love the Baba-channouj, it is the intensely smokey flavour. I usually get a “Classic Yummba” with Baba-channouj.

I love Yummba It was a revelation the first time I ate there. In fact, it ruined me for Israel. I kept comparing felafels to Yummba’s soft bread, and the awesome babaghanoush, and they fell short.

The gourmet felafel pita is awesome. Also a very clean, modern shop, and the food court (it really deserves a better label than that) is a great place to eat with the excellent views over the city. Post a comment
