Miznon Getzel, Tel Aviv


I fell in love with this cute little place, and I'm glad that it is in Tel Aviv; I  would weigh 500 lbs if I had this in New York.

While looking for a breakfast restaurant we happened upon this little spot.  They have a small menu consisting of salads, pancakes, and cakes; everything is made to order and spectacular.   They make a wonderful crepe cake, which is layered with a sweet cream.  

Everything on the menu is made with great care and with fresh ingredients. 




There are a few tables outside and three tables inside.




This place is packed with charm and personality, and it is beautifully decorated with nice country kitchen touches and eastern European detail.








I could see myself spending some real quality time sitting at one of these tables, hot tea cooling in a pretty cup, a plate of something delicious tempting me, and a good book in my hand.  


Blueberry, sour cream and whipped cream pancakes.


 These strawberry pancakes with sweet cream and whipped cream became my everything.  They were light, decadently sweet and delicious.


 The salmon, creme fraiche and egg pancakes.


Gouda, ham and egg pancakes.



We came back for another delicious breakfast a few days later.  It was so lovely to enjoy this delicious food, sip tea and watch the cats and a few people walk by.  It was quiet and peaceful even though we were so close to the Carmel Market.

    first watch menu restaurants are an American chain based out of Florida. The unique aspect about all of their outlets is that they are open from 7:00 am sharp but only till 2:30 in the afternoon. Their entire menu is a breakfast menu and a brunch menu combined. None of their outlets is open at night. Hence they don’t have a dinner menu at all. However, the First Watch Menu Prices are affordable and budget-friendly.

Bordier Butter - The Best Butter in France

France is in the midst of a butter shortage!  Due to a decrease in milk production and a substantial demand for French pastries all over the world (mainly China and the Middle East), the price of butter has increased by 60% in one year.  The French are stocking up and thus creating shortages.  French newspapers are publishing articles titled "A guide to cooking without butter".  So, with hopes that the shortages are temporary, here is my ode to the best butter in the world.  I'm not kidding.  The. Best. Butter. In. The. World. Mr. Bordier, a grandson and a son of cheese mongers, became a butter artisan in 1985.  He acquired a creamery originally founded in 1927.  The supreme taste of the Bordier butter was first recognized by a chef from the Plaza Athenee while vacationing in Brittany, a beautiful region in northwestern France. Bordier is the lone butter master to still use the old method of kneading the butter according to the 19th century traditions.  He uses a woo

Port Said, Tel Aviv

Located across the street from the Great Synagogue of Tel Aviv, Port Said is one of the most popular restaurants in the city.  This restaurant is a brainchild of the iconic Israeli chef Eyal Shani of Tzfon Abraxas , HaSalon, and  Miznon . Most of the dining tables at Port Said are set up outdoors, and the interior of the restaurant is comprised of vinyl records stacked on floor to ceiling shelves, a bar with a small counter and the kitchen.    This is one of those restaurants with a very cool, young people vibe that not everyone would find appealing.  The wait for a table can be very long, the staff can be somewhat brusque, and the cigarette smoke might be bothersome.  The food, however, is spectacular. The menu at Port Said is very similar to Tzfon Abraxas and, just like there; it changes daily according to the season.  I was glad to see that they had this creme fraiche, tomato pulp and olive oil dip, which came with a couple of slices of challah. We ordered th

North Abraxas, Tzfon Abraxas, Tel Aviv

Located steps away from the beautiful Rothschild Boulevard, Tzfon Abraxas is a spectacular restaurant serving mind blowing modern Israeli food in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.  Eyal Shani,  the man behind Tzfon Abraxas, Port Said, HaSalon, and Miznon (where cauliflower is king), is one of Israel's best known chefs.  He is a slightly eccentric figure and a passionate culinary genius.  Tzfon Abraxas and Port Said have a similar menu, but Abraxas seems to be quieter and a touch more reserved.  The setup here is very simple: a few paper covered tables, a party room behind closed doors, and some tightly squeezed together seats at the counter with the view of the open kitchen. Instead of tablecloths, the tables are adorned with brown paper, a tomato and some kosher salt, while  some of the food is served on pieces of cardboard or paper bags. The menu changes according to the freshness of the ingredients and their seasonality. . We began our lunch with these Jericho g
