Restaurants Jerusalem

The place was tiny, with tables covered with red and white oilcloth. It looked like an Israeli version of a diner. But as soon as the food started arriving, I knew that Eucalyptus was the real deal.

For a limited time at the Inbal, chef Nimrod Norman is offering an upscale shipudiya that is well worth checking out.

While the food was very good, and I plan to go back, the service was lacking. It was amateurish, and several of the servers did not know the menu well.

Jacko’s Street is not a cheap restaurant and it’s not fast food, but I think it offers excellent value for money. Overall, the meal was delicious and a great place to go for a special occasion.

If you’re craving Indian food in Jerusalem, look no further than the three-week-old Ichikanda. We were three people and came hungry, and were served two starters and two main dishes. We left stuffed.

The cafe is almost all outdoors and you feel almost as if you’re sitting in someone’s backyard. In the winter, part of the cafe is under plastic sheeting.

It’s not completely vegan since they do use eggs in the desserts but there is no white flour or cane sugar and the kitchen is parve. The dishes can also be made gluten-free.

Meat Couture aims for the sweet spot that is a step up from the fast food stands around it, but with prices less than a sit-down grill restaurant.

I can see myself happily whiling away an afternoon reading a good book over tea and scones. It will be almost like a mini vacation.

The word “tour” is a bit of a misnomer as you can see all of the equipment including the shiny hi-tech still, which is visible through a large glass window behind the bar from your seat at the bar.
