Amsterdam we are following in your footsteps! Amsterdam city is owned by cyclists, and riding a bike is a way of life. Not only is it cheaper then owning a car but it is safer as well.
As Amsterdam, Tel Aviv is a bustling, crowded, fast city and taking the car out of the parking lot is not such a good idea because you would be just sitting in traffic for hours. For the past couple of years bicyclists have been taking over Tel Aviv, and the city has turned into a bike friendly one with special bicycle routes and most excitingly awesome bikes with really cool gadgets.

Obviously we were tres excited with our new bikes that we got from O-FUN store located on the trendy Ben Yehuda street which is a 5 minute bicycle ride from the beach!! Not only can you buy bicycles there but if you are here on vacation you can rent a bicycle and ride all over the beautiful Tel Aviv City.

                                                             Love our new bikes!

The most important thing to get right after you purchase your bike is a high end lock. Bike thieves are all over the place so you must take care of your new purchase.

We were very excited to receive FOLDY LOCK'S bike locks!

                           They are not only funky looking but also compact and very easy to use.

Located right across the magnificent Tel Aviv beach stands the amazing ARMANDO restaurant. So not only do you get to eat outstanding food, but you get to enjoy the fabulous beach view while eating!

We were greeted by the charming owner Ben who seated us at one of the best tables in the restaurant and started bringing out all his 14 fresh homemade mezze delicacies. He surprised us with a tasty beef carpaccio.

For our entrees we let the maestro choose and order for us three wonderful dishes. We were severed with : the ANTIAS (yellow tale amberjack) absolutely delicious with just the right amount of seasonings, fresh SHULA FILET (Branzino, European Seabass), wonderful flavor combination, well baked and extremely tasteful and the BEEF FILET -perfectly tasty and irresistible.

While enjoying our delectable cuisine our heads bopped to the super fun 80's and 90's music playing in the background!  

For our dessert we ordered the Souffle chocolate and the Cappuccino tower .which both sated us with soft, creamy decadent loveliness.

Generous dishes elegantly presented, high end staff, impeccable service, beach view and coziness is what you get at  ARMANDO.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

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.
