CUISINE AT IT'S BEST!

Dizengoff street, a beautiful chic street, that has everything your heart desires: restaurants, cafes, boutiques, clubs, bars, hip people and 5 minutes walking distance from the beach!! Dizengoff is the heartbeat of Tel Aviv!!! That is why we were so excited to go for lunch at the tempting cafe/bar - NISHA- located on the oh so fashionable Dizengoff street.

We were immediately treated to heavenly cocktails! The BERRY MOJITO - sweet yet flirty and the CHILI CON HERBS- spicy and mysterious. Throughout the afternoon the bartender spoiled all the dinners with shots of Grey Goose Vodka and Whiskey Bitter while the D.J was spinning fresh beats.




We started with the GREEK SALAD-  Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers,purple onion, kalamata olives, croutons,salty white cheese, za'atar, delectably fresh,  BEET SALAD - with Gorgonzola cheese-grilled beets,baby radishes, roasted almonds, arugula, and goat milk yogurt, FARM SALAD-  Cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red pepper, baby radishes, seasoning, olive oil, za'atar, wonderful flavors of pure desire.


Our appetizers were so amazing we yearned to pleasure our awaiting warm mouths with the main dishes that were on their way. The SEA BREAM with SPINACH TORTELLINI and the  SEA BREAM on asian style lemon butter! Both fish left us with a euphoric aftermath!




Yummmmmm! Dessert time! Malabi on a waffle with  3 scoops of ice cream!! We felt all the goodness of this delectable sweet all the way down between our thighs and small whimpers of joy were released from our kissers!


 Nisha left us satiated and content!

Usually this chic spot is used as a private ladies club , where they hold seminars and special spa treatments. Today though, 9 ROOMS guested us not only for a birthday celebration but for the launch of Gerald's new Bistro menu!


Pretty art in "9 ROOMS"


The menu includes a variety of sandwiches filled with goodness-  salmon, tuna curry, Gruyere, corned beef,on freshly made bread and rolls. The wide range of breakfast option :Salads (Caesar,  Nicoise, Quinoa,), Quiches,and soups.



Oh but the sweets!! Phenomenal, not only visually, as they are tres beautiful, but by flavor as well!

ORGANIC PARADISE!

A picturesque restaurant called MESHEK BARZILAY awaited us on a beautiful rainy Saturday morning. Located in Neve Tzedek- one of Tel Aviv's  oldest districts, between the beautiful boutiques, galleries and craft shops, we couldn't wait to sink our Romanian vampire teeth into the organic local goodies that Meshek Barzilay serves.

There is an option for indoor seating or outdoor seating in the beautiful patio. It was such a beautiful rainy day we obvi opted to sit outdoors. The outdoor patio was surrounded by retractable glass walls, where we enjoyed to hear the rain tapping the windows and took pleasure of being surrounded by tall trees and delightful flowers.

We started with the CAULIFLOWER CLOUDS-  with chickpeas, raisins, peanuts, fresh chili, and green leaves on carrot cream- beautifully executed and rich in flavor. HERBED FOCACCIA- with olive oil and Tahini. POTATO GNOCCHI- Ali olio based on olive oil , cherry tomatoes and parsley, with a touch of chili, served with vegan yogurt, GREEK SALAD WITH FETA-  vegetables in season, pickled onions, olives, hyssop, and feta cheese, (there is a vegan option for the feta cheese- vegan walnut feta)



SHAKSHUKA- eggs or tofu in roasted pepper and tomato sauce, served with house bread, tahini and hummus.The shakshuka was so beautifully presented and healthfully colored that we flirted with it for a bit till we ached to feel how it tastes in our mouths. It was damn good, damn good!




Dessert- CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES-  and candied orange peels, tres attractive and utterly delectable! The truffles made us whimper sounds of pure pleasure!



For all you peeps with doggies, MESHEK BARZILAY is tres animal friendly and tolerant! How fun!

MESHEK BARZILAY is a highly recommended restaurant if you are in to devouring organic, delicious cuisine and leaving with a tummy full of goodness and a euphoric feeling!

BAKE OFF!!

Cookies, cakes, pastries, tarts, cupcakes and more!!! This is what we were served at the premier of Bake Off Israe!!


The famous competition selects from among its contestants the best amateur pairs of bakers.
Besides watching the show and drooling heavily over everything that is being magnificently baked, you are in for a great competition and you may also learn a thing or two from the talented competitors! Oh, and the judges are some of our fave chefs and bakers!! Ran Shmueli the genius, Oded Brenner ( of Max Brenner chocolate- yum!) and the charming pastry cook Karin Goren! How exciting!

The premier was held at Ran Shmueli's restaurant Claro, located in the beautiful Sarona, Tel Aviv.
Upon entering we smelled what was in store for us - goodies! Loads of them, and we couldn't wait to indulge our cravings for sweets. First off, there was a breakfast buffet with all kinds of cheeses, fish, cream cheese, bagels, coffee, and drinks.






 After the munching, chit chat and gossip, the hosts of the show presented the judges and gave us a glimpse of what would be in store for the viewers. A lot of sweets and competition!! After the audience got a small dose of what will be on their T.V screens, it was time for the dessert smorgasbord to open. Everyone raced to the sweets bar as if they were about to pose for Leonardo Da Vinci's "Last Supper".




It was good, genuinely good!!

After our tummies were full, we left, and upon exiting we were treated to delectable macaroons from Roladin bakery...just in case we did not get sugar infused enough ;)

Make sure to watch the first episode this coming Saturday, April 9th at 9pm- Channel 22- Keshet!!
