Passover is the time of the year when Jews celebrate the Exodus. Israelis have found a way to enjoy this holiday, creating delicious Passover-friendly foods. Here are restaurants which make keeping kosher for Passover a piece of cake.

Lechem Basar

Lechem Basar

Lechem Basar offers a full menu that is kosher for passover. From shnitzel to corn bread hamburgers, chefs use either corn or matza flour as a tasty substitute for ingredients that rise. Manager Joachim Amsellem shares how he keeps the whole restaurant completely kosher. Two days before Passover, the restaurant is cleaned thoroughly to remove all remnants of bread. After the cleaning, a representative from the Chief Rabbinate makes sure every fork, dish, ingredient and even wine bottle is strictly following the kosher laws. You can enjoy a serene view of the Mediterranean Sea while eating a delicious kosher for Passover meal at the Lechem Basar branch at the Tel Aviv Port.
