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.

  1. 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 t...

Dallal Restaurant, Tel Aviv

Dallal is located in the heart of Neve Tzedek, Tel Aviv's oldest district and the first Jewish  neighborhood outside of the old port city of Jaffa.  It was built as a suburb in 1887 and is now a very trendy area full of cafes, boutiques, and restaurants.   I have been buying breads, cakes and croissants at the Dallal Bakery for a few years now, but this was my first time dining at their restaurant on the corner of Shabazi Street.   Dallal takes up a good chunk of the block since it was built on the ruins of three restored houses next to the Suzanne Dallal Cultural Center. There are a few sitting options while dining at Dallal: outside in the small garden-like area, in the enclosed courtyard with a view of the sky, and inside the restaurant which feels like old time Paris. Dallal is a perfect place for a fun lunch with friends, or a romantic dinner with your sweetheart. There are two lunch options at Dallal: 78 ILS for two appetizers and bread...

A. Lacroix Patisserie, Paris

My visits to Paris are usually carefully planned out; practically every meal is decided far in advance, and same goes for pastries, ice cream and macaron.  While I have not visited every pastry shop in Paris, that would be almost impossible given their numbers, I am aware of most of them.  Imagine my happiness when I came across a brand new patisserie, one that is barely a year old!   A. Lacroix is a lovely tea room/patisserie opened by an American woman and a Parisian pastry chef.  Jackie, the founder, is originally from Ohio but has been living in Paris for nine years.  She left her job in the telecom industry in order to pursue a dream of opening a tea salon.  I'm so glad she did!   This is a charming patisserie/tea salon with beautiful stone walls, wooden beams, plenty of seating space, and location that just can't be beat.  One side of the place looks at the Notre-Dame Cathedral! A. Lacroix is not just a pastry sho...
