Bicicletta

Bicicletta is a fun and trendy outdoor garden bar with great food. Highlights include the eggplant fries served with powdered sugar and hot sauce (we promise, these are to die for), turkey sandwich, which is certainly not your average turkey sandwich as it includes potato chips right in the sandwich. The cocktails are also quite delicious.

Abu Hassan

One of the best hummus places in the city, located in Jaffa. Make sure you bring cash and are ready to experience a lot of loudness. Arrive early and don’t be surprised if you are seated with other people at the same table. However, the hummus really is worth it – it’s really some of the best hummus you’ll find in the city, and arguably in the country.

Persian food is full of flavor thanks to some incredible herbs and spices that you might not have ever even heard of before. You absolutely have to order Ghomeh Sabzi, which is an herb and beef stew that is insanely delicious and goes perfectly well with Tahdig, which is Persian rice with a crispy layer, which is the best part.
