Aside from all the fancy cuisine, there is humus. Best humus in Tel Aviv/Jaffa !. If you have ever tasted the stuff you will appreciate how addictive it is. Not only is it moreish and nourishing, satisfying and inexpensive, it is an Israeli institution! The smooth creamy texture sits [...]
Today had an early afternoon date with my sweet hubbie. He suggested late lunch in Tel Aviv, I suggested visiting a Tel Aviv Gallery. They say compromise is the basis to a happy and long lasting relationship. So that's what we did compromise - ate lunch and visited a [...]
