THE MUST-EAT LIST: ISRAEL

Let's start this up...First up: ISRAEL!

So we all know that Israel is the kosher capital of the world...However, it seems like anyone can open a restaurant, so being kosher is by no means an indication of greatness--in fact, far too many restaurants in Israel are mediocre. So in the land of kosher, which restaurants are at the top!?

At globalkosherfoodie, we name names...Let us begin.

TIBERIAS: DECKS--A masterpiece on the marina--honey and wine-glazed duck to die for, amazing entrecote steak cooked to perfection and cornish game hen that is simply magnificent (also called baby chicken or "Pargheet" in Hebrew)...A CARNIVORE'S WET DREAM.

TEL AVIV-Shawarma---Shawarma Sheinkin (corner of Allenby and Sheinkin across the street from Shook HaCarmel)---three different types of shawarma---recommend the MIXED---lamb, baby chicken, and turkey...fresh house salads made round-the-clock.

Another joint--AGENDA in Tel Aviv---tasty, hip, and chic. YUM!

JERUSALEM for falafel---UZI's---not usually a fan of falafel, but Uzi's 100-year-old recipe gives me enough reason to go for seconds. Old school in preparation--caramelized onions with some kick-ass cooked-to-perfection falafel served on a laffa (flatbread). In the 100 gates (Me'ah She'arim) district


Let's open this up to discussion...
