Growing up in Israel as a child in a large family that cooked every day, his course was always set toward a culinary career.

Todd Lyon of the Daily Nutmeg had great things to say after her recent visit, May 9,2012.


“Sababa falafel. It’s so much fun to say out loud. Try it with me: SA-BA-BA FA-LA-FEL. Like Middle Eastern baby talk, right? Actually, it’s Hebrew for “cool, great, all right, no problem.”

Now, here’s something else you must try: the food at Sababa, a new eatery on Whitney Avenue brought to you by the talented and charming Chef Mickey Josephs, of Mickey’s in Hamden. Self-serve, with just a few tables and a brisk to-go business, Sababa is home to fresh falafels, chicken shawarma and BLT (beef, lamb and turkey) shawarma. These basics are served either on a pita or a platter, and offered with a mind-bending array of house-made toppings, salads and sauces. Some are traditional—hummus, baba ghanoush, tahini, staples of Mickey’s native Israel—while others are original creations by the multicultural chef. Sweet Potato and Mushroom Salad with crimini, shiitake, sesame oil, cilantro, scallions and barrel-aged white vinegar… Black Bean & Roasted Corn Salad (“Definitely not native to Israel,” Mickey says with a grin)… Red Cabbage Salad… these offerings reflect Mickey’s penchant, made popular at his white tablecloth restaurant, for beautifully blending global flavors, techniques and ingredients.
