The most remarkable thing about the club is undoubtedly the mix of people that frequent its premises. Bisexual, homosexual, heterosexual, asexual, and transsexuals from Jewish orthodox, Jewish secular, Arab Israeli or foreign backgrounds all mixing and mingling without hesitation. Nothing like the mutual interest of whips and chains, spanking and humiliation to bring people together. [...]
I see a lot of things around here that warrant a chuckle. I always say to myself, “Damn Harry, you should carry your digital camera with you wherever you go.” Luckily, this time I did. I think I’ll pass on living on what I call “Take My Money” street and shopping at “Shams.” It’s shame [...]
I just got back from seeing Liz Nord’s documentary about Punk rock in Israel at the Docaviv film festival. If you are living in Israel I highly recommend you check out Jericho’s Echo. It’s playing one more time Saturday night at midnight. Tonight was packed so I highly recommend you get your tickets as early [...]
I love the Irish. The Irish in Tel Aviv were enjoying Purim yesterday. Purim is a Jewish holiday which celebrates the foiling of a plot against the Jews by the wicked Haman. It has been said that most Jewish holidays have the same basis. They tried to kill us all, let’s eat. The Irish are [...]
The Abulafia bakery, located in the predominantly Arab city of Jaffa next to Tel Aviv, is 125 years old. This landmark bakery is open 24 hours a day and always has a crowd waiting for everything fresh from pita, Arab style pizza, honey drenched sweets, bagele and numerous other breads, as well as the hot [...]
Yehuda’s standing room only gig at Rashi Bar was top notch. Top quality neo-folk. While talking with the wife about how we are way too cosmopolitan for Modi’in, something weird happened. I was a little hungry and ordered french fries. After about 20 minutes and no trace of my crispy potato treats I assumed that [...]
Singer/songwriter Yehuda Ledgley will be performing Thursday night at Rashi cafe/bar on the corner of Rashi and King George streets in Tel Aviv. Yehuda’s music is top notch so if you are in the area come by and check him out. Yehuda will be accompanied by the lovely Elie Brickman on background vocals. The music [...]
Walking this afternoon through the old Tel Aviv neighborhood of Kerem Hatemanim en route to my apartment after spending a few hours at a Sheinkin Cafe, I overheard the following exchange between an ambulance driver/medic and a woman who apparently had called for the ambulance for someone else. The medic had just gotten out of [...]
Shalom everyone. I’ll be away for the next week and my good friend “B” will be filling in for me while I am gone. He is equally as cynical as I am so you are in good hands. A couple more things about “B”. He lives in Tel Aviv, loves Chinese food, cholent and has [...]
So I lied. My previous post is not actually my last post about Madonna. This probably isn’t either. I wasn’t planning on mentioning her again but when the opportunity arose for an insider view of Kabbalah conference’s gala dinner I couldn’t resist. I’m glad I didn’t. It’s golden. The writer will remain anonymous for fear [...]
