As if we needed excuses to celebrate it, today is International Avocado Day. What do you bring to a fruit that already has everything in it? Well – The best and tastiest avocado dishes in our city, ones that do a favor with the wonderful raw material and present this green green in all its glory. These are the best avocado dishes in Tel Aviv.
Sashimi, avocado and yogurt Bar 51
Bar 51 serves one of the most brilliant dishes in the city, one that puts the raw ingredients at the heart of things and doesn’t waste time with unnecessary davinis. Palamada sashimi, intias or other fresh fish, generously placed next to it are great and lightly salted pieces of avocado, sour yogurt and fresh leaf salad with grated horseradish on top that benefits the bite. In short, a glorious dish.

Green and avocado salad pastel
The refreshing line continues with this great dish of the renewed Pastel, directed by Chef Gal Ben Moshe. The dish in question consists of green leaves, delicate zucchini flowers and roasted avocado until lightly browned, and an intriguing and truly amazing aroma. Everything is seasoned with an aromatic and refreshing yuzu vinaigrette as well.

Avocado bruschetta Port Said
In Port Said (and several other restaurants of Eyal Shani’s house) they serve avocado bruscata from the legends – an excellent and well-toasted bread, on which chunks of avocado are generously placed that do not put a Mexican plantation to shame as it is. There is not much more to add except that the bite is perfect, put the avocado in the center, and we are ready to devour the dish at least once a day. That is, if you survive the turn.

Shrimp and avocado wild
In the wild, they serve a great avocado dish with no unnecessary pretensions that focuses on the wonderful raw material for which we gathered. Fresh shrimps are added to the beautiful avocado, which are also wonderful, and a cocktail shrimp sauce that beats the whole dish. It’s called, less is more.

Fish and avocado tartare Sheila
One of the iconic dishes of our city: a round avocado ball, made flawlessly, which actually wraps and hides a fresh Intias fish, a combination that turns out to be ideal. Added to this celebration is a fresh and tingly mint aioli, almonds, basil and an oval beetroot that adds great color.

Panko Aga Avocado | From Tan Tan
At Mentantan, they serve a traditional Japanese dish that reveals to us that avocado is a perfect product even in its fried form. Well, what’s not perfect in its fried form? Here we are talking about fried avocado with a crispy coating of Japanese panko – it is crispy, crunchy and a delight to the palate. The soft avocado softens even more during the frying process, so it is even more recommended.
