Hi Everyone,
On 1 of my shifts I met a urologist from Chicago who was also doing a stint with MDA. He is staying in a hotel 100M from my hotel. We arranged to meet for dinner 2 evenings ago. He is vegan and needs a gluten free meal so I let him choose the restaurant. Yes, I even ate at a vegan restaurant!
The restaurant was in the Neve Tsedek area of Tel Aviv. We walked there and sort of got lost on the convoluted streets, passing through the Florentin area. Neve Tsedek is an older area that has been completely renovated. It has upscale restaurants and shops and is more expensive to live in. Florentin is probably what Neve Tsedek used to look like before it got gentrified. The streets are very narrow and the area has 1 cafe and restaurant after another. It caters to the student, young adult and artistic crowd. Usually I don’t like graffiti but this type was really good quality art work. The food at the restaurant was wonderful.
Love,
Brian
