The 38 Best Restaurants in Tel Aviv | Eater

"Sarona, a 140-­year-­old German Templer colony, has been reclaimed as an open-­air leisure area packed with restaurants, shops, eateries, and playgrounds. There are a myriad of standalone restaurants (Jajo, Miss Kaplan, Claro) but the real star is Sarona Market. Open on Saturdays — a rarity in Tel Aviv — you’ll find everything from exotic produce, bakeries, cheese shops, and halva to eateries helmed by Israel’s top chefs. Try some knafeh (Arabic cheese pastry soaked in sweet syrup) at Natzaret Sweets, or the smoked trout sandwiches at Forela Bar. [$­$$]" - Keren Brown
