Round Tables — A Culinary Adventure in Tel Aviv

Israel is an every growing country, proud of its multi-cultural heritage and traditions rooted deep in history and religion. When it comes to food, however, the path isn’t so clear. Ask ten different locals for a description of typical Israeli cuisine and you will receive ten distinct answers.

Founders of the food project, Round Tables, created the month-long November event to stimulate the minds of Tel Aviv diners. Bringing the cuisines and chefs from afar to Israel provides a beautiful multi-cultural opportunity that can’t be found anywhere else. In the background, the Round Tables pushes aside any misconceptions of the culinary scene of Israel and welcomes the visiting international chefs to discover the country for themselves.

Hosting Tel Aviv restaurants, The Blue Rooster and Lumina, presented their usual menu in new ways during Round Tables. The Blue Rooster’s vibrant plates with fresh flavors paired perfectly with the homey style of The Fat Radish. The chefs of Lumina and Stazione di Posta offered a mixed menu to guests, every other dish being from the Israeli or Italian restaurant. The result? A beautiful mashup of eggplant, ravioli, chestnut soup, sea bass, and more accurately representing both cuisines and still somehow managing to meet perfectly in the middle.
