I agree with you about the titles of a number of CHOW articles – a number of them are offensive as well as tasteless. That said, I just sigh and ignore them. In particular: "Here’s to the Holy Land. Israeli wine...

Thanks for posting the tasting note. Chateau Golan makes very well-crafted wines. They are definitely in the “International Style” camp and I wish they had more of a sense of place. The most interesting Israeli wines...

I ate there last night and absolutely loved it — fun, friendly waitstaff, very good moussaka, really pleasant old jazz, and great half-price wine (mon and tues nights). I’d much rather eat at the Hill diner than any...

Hey 'hounders! I would like to know if Miriam (on 5th Ave in Park Slope) is good for non-brunch? Probably I should explain what I’m talking about. My friend wants to eat authentic Israeli cuisine since he’s an expat...

You could try Taboon on 10th and 52. It’s Israeli-accented Mediterranean, the room is extremely pleasant and the food I’ve had there has been very good to excellent. “Taboon” refers to the traditional...

What is the name for the tiny gelatinous cubes often served at restaurants with fancy truffles? They are pretty tiny... slightly smaller than cubed cheese — about the size of cucumber cubes in an Israeli salad. They are kind...

I had some Israeli-style chopped salad and baba that was terrific. Waaaay nicer than a falafel stand, so nobody flame me please. I haven’t been for a few months – don’t know if there’s a winter menu or...

. . . Goodness, that’s alot of treyf for (what I think is) an Israeli place! Anyway they are friendly and trying hard – watchful yet unobtrusive service. The wine list has plenty of budget listings...not many places...

alone and chow on awesome hummus and salatim. They have good, unique tails, and a lot of Israeli wine.

what is the name of their diner in cobble hill? i originally thought israeli, especially because of the wines and some of the foods. however i didn’t think it was strictly under that name. i only thought of persian because...
