Tel Aviv is the go-to destination for amazing cuisine, no matter what kind of appetite you might have. From traditional Israeli dishes like shakshouka to street food snacks and delicious vegan delights, the city has it all!
If you're looking for a truly unique experience in Tel Aviv, head to one of its many hummus restaurants. These eateries serve up Eastern Mediterranean dishes with an Israeli flair; from creamy hummus topped with spicy chorizos and fried eggplant slices to succulent soups made from chickpeas and Middle Eastern spices.
For those seeking vegetarian comfort food on the go, popular vendors around the city offer some amazing options like falafel wraps filled with crunchy salads, slices of soft pickles, hummus dips and creamy tahini sauces. If you’re looking for something a bit more unusual or indulgent why not try malabi - a chilled rosewater pudding served with pistachio nuts or coconut flakes.
No conversation about Tel Aviv's culinary experience would be complete without a mention of Shawarma - quick Street food fare known often as “Israeli tacos”. Shawarma is basically thin slices of rotisserie-cooked meat wrapped up in pita bread together with side servings such as French fries or shredded cabbage salad before being drenched in tahini sauce.
If searching for something sweet try Jerusalem mixed berry knafeh – crispy shredded phyllo pastry filled with ricotta cheese and raspberry or strawberry jam then soaked in simple syrup that gives it a hint of sweetness that makes this favorite desert even more irresistible.
