This is one of the most popular restaurants in the Yemenite quarter in Tel Aviv. Shlomo opened the restaurant and was later joined by Shlomo’s son Doron. This secret gem is a real neighborhood joint and Doron, the third generation of this culinary tradition, is the living spirit of the place. Doron is responsible for upgrading the visual aspect of the location; however the food is still prepared exactly as it was when it was opened in 1937.
