Israeli Salad exceeded every expectation

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Israeli Salad made with real commitment to za'atar and technique. The sweet and tangy result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.

Shabbat and holiday meals follow religious traditions that shape the food served. The a Carmel Market street stall was exactly right for this kind of eating. Israeli wine was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
