For a country rooted in thousands and thousands of years of Jewish history, we value what the wise Tevye once coined: “Tradition!” Nonetheless, while Israelis continue to honor tradition, in more recent years, Tel Aviv, Jaffa, and beyond have opened up their minds to new, out-of-the-box innovations. From introducing contemporary elements into Israeli culture to grabbing hold of western food trends and not letting go, there are so many weird & wonderful places popping up around Israel. We invite you to open your minds to the endless possibilities and sample all of these otherworldly ideas.
