5 new places to try in the Carmel Market

Mor Sikorl and a group of partners from Night Kitchen recenlty opened the Day Kitchen with the slogan "Night owls also eat during the day." Enjoy your meal in a lovely dining house with an open window to the kitchen with dangling pots and pans. While at Night Kitchen they offer a four-course nightly friends dinner with wine for NIS 150, at Day Kitchen you'll find a daily friends meal for 69 NIS per person. You can order a full selection of salads for starters, an amazing selection of a main dish to choose from, and in addition, you will receive a dessert - a crème brûlée candy with berry jam. From 4 pm, diners can expect a variety of discounts on the dining menu and a discounted alcohol menu. By the way, chasers for NIS 10 a pop are available throughout the day, so you can make a stop here while shopping in the market and relax with vinyl tunes.

This kebab place, opened by chef Orit Moskowitz, is located in an alley that connects to the main street of the Carmel Market, and it holds a very distinct, Romanian vision. The result is a very tasty kebab, dense and rich in garlic. The kebab comes in a pita bread, a plate or a tray with small salads, including excellent Romanian eggplant, french fries, and pickles. The pricing is based on the quantity of kebabs and how they are served. We even heard whisperings of Romanian between customers, and we understood that even those familiar with the original version are convinced.

The gleaming wooden tables and sake menus here create an authentic Japanese experience. This new Japanese Umami bar, hidden right at the bottom of the market offers a menu that is slightly wider in options compared to the regular fare you'll find in Tel Aviv. For started starters - a classic Thai papaya salad, white fish ceviche, chicken gyoza and seaweed salad.

The Carmel Market is most definitely a tourist attraction; some of the quaintest Airbnbs in the city can be found in the surrounding Kerem Hateimanim neighborhood. And so, Einstein Cafe was established out of true thought for all these tourists - and it is evident that a lot of coin has been invested in the process. Colorful graffiti on the walls welcomes the guests, and the cafe offers a variety of breakfasts from around the globe: English breakfast with cooked onion and tomato, beans in tomato sauce, omelet in a pepper shell and sausages; a Mexican breakfast including a tortilla stuffed with a chorizo omelet, onion and pepper alongside rice, beans, and guacamole; as well as a French Croque Monsieur, Georgian Khachapuri Acharuli filled with cheeses, and more. On Friday mornings there's even a live jazz trio.

We did not expect to meet Chef Aviv Moshe in the Carmel Market, but he is responsible for the menu of the new kebab stall. The seating is alongside a cooking bar and the strangely delicious dessert of the house is called 'malvis', a creamy vegetable ice cream with sugared coconut fragments, red syrup, pistachios and halva.
