My favorite eateries in Israel
Much thanks to tafka for letting me coerce her into”tagging” me to write about my favorite restaurants in my beloved country. You’ll notice I like cheap ethnic food. I also love foi gras, but I don’t go to upscale joints that often, so I decided to keep it real. The rules: 1. Add a direct [...]

Say you love strawberries!
To me, Winter in Israel means strawberries. Strawberries are hot! What better way to use fresh seasonal Israeli strawberries than make strawberry ice cream? Strawberry shortcake? How goyish!

Samantha of The Samantha Files, who knows me from my participation in last year’s Amateur Gourmet Survivor last year brought the concept of “blogging by mail” to my attention. The concept is simple. Participating food bloggers from all over the world send [...]

Israel Confidential
Kitchen Confidential author, culinary badboy and my personal hero, Anthony Bourdain is interviewed in today’s Ha’aretz. Nothing new is really said except this short excerpt about Israel. How about visiting our region? Have you been there? “No, I haven’t.” It’s a very fascinating place, in many different ways; some would say it’s quite insane. “So [...]
