1. Mrs. Kotiyo
On a post-military trip I went for a month to Thailand. Most of the guys keep and eat burgers and I am the only one who ate the local food. Mrs. Kotiyo reminds me of Thailand because of the surrounding market and sitting at stainless steel tables, the music and the smells and even the drinking that comes from Thailand. I also love Matty as a person and a friend. Good day 1

2. Atonement Mew
Benzi is one of my best friends. Beyond the fact that everyone knows him as a funny and nice man, he is a culinary genius with considerable mileage. I like to sit on the sidewalk at a table covered with a map in red and white with scarves of Maccabi Haifa and Rome hanging on the wall, a small bubble of Italy in Tel Aviv. King George 105

Eric French is my fish supplier since my days as a young cook in the classroom. We have been together for seven or eight years and there is no second to his merchandise. Immigrants of Zion 3
4. Malgo and Malbar
Sunday is my day off, where Ole is closed. When my wife and I want to go out in the evening the first option is Malgo and Malbar, and we have been there many times already. Moti Titman is one of the most brilliant chefs in the country. He brings something clean with a level of care that I really like and appreciate, and the food is always delicious. 142 Rothschild Blvd.

5. Habashush
I’m crazy about quicksand. When I’m missing something I’m popping into the store and there’s no way I’m just going out with the thing I came for. The smells and colors are authentic and fun, and somehow I always have to call my cooks to help carry. The Pioneers 18
