MASHYA!

Oh how we love our hotel restaurants, they are mostly all super chic and fun so it's always a pleasure. Obviously we were tres excited to check out the sexy contemporary Mashya restaurant located in the very trendy and sophisticated Mendeli St. Hotel.

Elegance, that is what Mashya presented us right away upon entering. A very cosmopolitan vibe, yet on  account of the beautiful greenery on the walls it makes you feel like you are sitting in a beautiful forest.The outdoor feeling while sitting indoors is utterly gratifying. The very delightful and eclectic hostess seated us at the bar and we were instantly greeted by the professional mixologist. Just the way we like it, drinks always before anything and everything!

After we deep throated our liqueur in our system it was definitely time to taste Chef Yossi Shitrit's mouthwatering masterpieces that everyone is raving about all over town.

While waiting for our appetizers to arrive we were spoiled with super mini pitas with shakshuka and  humus! So darling and scrumptious!

We smelled our appetizers arriving, oh the aroma, mesmerizing!
Crispy Shrimp- with roasted beets and sour cream, Mediterranean Crabs and Shrimps - with kale, Jerusalem Artichoke and cumin, so good we ravished it right away,10 Spices taboon Frenne with labaneh and spicy matbucha, Raw Fish- paprika, miso, horse radish and marinated black radish, Poached Egg Yolk- Baladi Spinach, so fresh we thrust it in our mouths. The starters were so fresh that our entire bodies were on fire with desperate desire!

Our entrees- 2 fillet prime cuts of the day, one 300 grams , the second 250 grams- the meat was super velvety, we groaned as the waves of pleasure swept through us,  and a wonderful Wild Fish- with celery root ,brown fish broth and toasted pine nuts, perfection which definitely rubbed us the right way!

Dessert,  dessert, dessert! Almond Parfait- almond financier, marzipan,sugar coated almonds, yogurt cremo, and yogurt tawill. Chocolate Mousse-cremeux, dark chocolate ice cream, gianduja and cocoa leaf. Our sweets were playfully tempting us to eat them, so we plunged right in and inserted them in our warm awaiting mouths. SUPERB!

The cuisine at MASHYA is so good it is definitely not meant for a quicky but meant for a marriage. We will be back for more , Mashya our love.
