Save your boozy brunch money for a good ol’ fashion Yogi Bear style picnic in Park Hayarkon, (though the red and white checkered blanket may be slightly more elephant-printed from the Carmel Market). If you’re a fan of those nostalgic lunches that give a whole new meaning to the word 'sand'-wich, head to one of Tel Aviv’s beaches for an ocean-side bite. And when all that homemade food makes you sleepy, it’s time for a quick catnap before continuing the outdoor fun at one of the best outdoor patios or rooftop bars in Tel Aviv.

Hungry? Look no further! TEL AVIV EAT festival is in town for the next 3 days, which means it's is your chance to dine at the top restaurants in town and still keep your pockets full. For a max price of NIS35 per dish, Tel aviv eateries are offering their food in the street-style version. To keep you focused on where to go, here are the 7 stands you don't want to miss.  Tuesday - Thursday, May 23-25. From 18:00 

Every year, come end of December, all the who's who of Tel Aviv's bustling culinary scene come together to hear the verdict. Which is the best restaurant in the city? Who is the up-and-coming chef wonder? Who is the bartender with the right attitude? And where the hell do you find the hottest pizza slice in town? This year, the party took place in the city’s new, hot and happening event space, Beit Hasmachot ('house of joy' in Hebrew) - and joyful it was. Time Out Tel Aviv announced the winners in each category and the crowd roared. When the evening ended, some left the party screaming, while some left hoping for a better outcome next year. We believe that just being nominated is a great honour.

You know that feeling when you look at something somebody else invented and you wish you had thought of it first ? That is what happened to me when I first saw LUKA. LUKA, aka “Luk at yourself,” is a combination of a beautiful stylish necklace and a super smart concept to match. Although this one-off product targets women over 40, every woman with a sense of style will relate. Winds of age Now, let's talk about age. Every lady turning 40 can feel the change. The eyes are not what they used to be; suddenly it's harder to read the small lettering on the menu, it's not that easy to size up that new bag you really want to buy by price tag alone, and reading text messages isn’t as effortless as it used to be. I mean, how big can a font get? We have to face the facts; we are living in a world of mobile communication where everything is small and fast and glasses cannot be the solution unless you wear them all the time. What is the solution you ask? LUKA is more than a  good option. Basically, it’s a magnifying glass at your service at all times. The tear shaped glass is attached to a gorgeous necklace (6 different designs to be exact) with a long chain allowing you the freedom to hold the glass and actually look through it.         The women behind LUKA are Dana Magen and Michal Henig, best friends who realized over breakfast that they had to create LUKA. They had just turned 45 and while they were eager to order their cup of coffee, they laughed at the fact that they both needed

When two brands collide, it better be good, and in this case we are happy to say it is. The joint venture of fashion brands Belle & Sue and Vender is taking over Tel Aviv with a special capsule collection inspired by the old kind of America. The America with the country-style music, iconic American images, trucks, 60-year-old waitresses in diners in Detroit and of course – apple pie.   The result is a well-done minimalist collection of red hot, white and navy blue T-shirts with quotes from country songs on the front, and the name of the collection RED NECK- WHITE COLLAR on the back. There are also T-shirt dresses and tank tops with prints of the iconic faces of Elvis and Johnny Cash, but don’t be disappointed if you don’t see them, apparently it's only for people with a keen eye for details. And then there's, of course, the good old baseball hat.   Best news of all – there's a party going on! And it's country style with beer, whiskey and a lot of Johnny Cash. It's happening this Friday, April 28th at 12:00-15:00 at the Belle & Sue store on 41 Sheinkin St, Tel Aviv. The collection will be available online starting April 26th at  www.belleandsue.co.il Prices:  T-shirts: NIS 189  Dresses: NIS 379-419  Hats and bags: NIS 39-99 

Ever wonder what it really looks like? The harassment I mean. Screenwriter and director Sigal Avin knows how it looks. Unfortunately, she knows how it feels too, and she thought it was about time someone actually aired it on screen so we were all aware that yes, that’s harassment. It may look innocent at times, it may even feel innocent at times, but let's not make any mistakes, that’s harassment. And yes, it can happen to men too. Avin created short online episodes based on real life scenarios in the hopes of attaching visual representations to what sexual harassment looks like. She started the project with 5 episodes in Israel, where she filmed well-known actors (all on a volunteer basis) in scenes from different work place environments to illustrate what happens when the thin but so thick line is crossed. Welcome to the real world. Now, Avin is doing it the American way with a six episode American version that features stars like David Schwimmer (also an executive producer on the project) , Cynthia Nixon, Emmy Rossum, Cristela Alonzo and more. The project, produced by Milk studios and David Schwimmer, features a doctor and a patient, a boss and a secretary, an actor and a wardrobe assistant, a politician and a journalist, a photographer and a model and coworkers, all doing the exact same thing. Doing their thing, whatever it is. Until something GOES WRONG. Something does not feel right anymore. That moment, that subtle moment needs to be acknowledged.

Singer-songwriter George Michael, who sold more than 100 million albums over his incredible music career, has died at the age of 53 at his home in Goring, England. The cause of death was heart failure, and his family issued a statement saying that he "passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period”.   © Shutterstock               This loss continues a year in which the music industry said goodbye to some of its greatest voices with the death of Prince, David Bowie and Leonard Cohen.              Michael rose to fame as half of Wham!, best known for their hit Last Christmas. He then continued with a successful solo career and become a huge pop superstar with songs like Careless Whisper, Faith, I can’t make you love me and father figure.   © Shutterstock               RIP.
