Bucke Cafe, Tel Aviv

I fell in love with Bucke Cafe, a wonderful spot for a delicious breakfast, lunch, or light dinner. The café has a very warm welcoming vibe and the mismatched chairs, couches, a wooden hutch, and scattered photos and paintings, give it a very homey feeling.

I really liked this place before I even ordered anything. We were seated outside under umbrellas, which shielded us from the strong sun. The place was filled with young families with small children, people working on their laptops, a nice couple on a date, and a group of friends enjoying a beautiful day. Once the beautifully presented food arrived I began to plan my return visit. I even asked for the menu again to see what else might be worth ordering once I come back.

The vegetarian menu is full of great and creative choices.

To say that the food was fresh and delicious would be an understatement.
This Bucke Tray of scrambled eggs, tuna salad, veggies, feta cheese, eggplant with Labneh topped with za'atar, and tahini, was a masterpiece of colors, flavors, and textures. Everything was also incredibly yummy.

How great does this look?

The Bureka (I chose potato but they also have cheese and something else that I forgot), came with Labneh topped with tomato salad with spicy green peppers and red onion, tahini, hard boiled egg, and pickles.

When we visited Bucke Café a few days later my husband got this marvelous Sabich - tahini, oven roasted potatoes and eggplant, tomato and red onion salad mixed with spicy green pepper, parsley. This was basically a deconstructed sabich which normally would come in a pita.

My scrambled eggs ciabatta with cucumber, tomato, arugula, was simple yet delicious. The orange juice was freshly squeezed, and the tea had fresh nana (mint) leaves in it.
