The White City ranks high right up there together with other major European cities like Copenhagen and Florence while American food magazine Saveur awards Tel Aviv in several categories in its annual culinary destination awards.
Tel Aviv was named “outstanding” in the best culinary destination category, the Best Markets and Shops category and Best In-flight Wine Program category thanks to El Al Airline’s impressive wine list.
Aside from the numerous hummus and shakshuka joints, the falafel and sabich stands, and the many food bars in the city, Tel Aviv boasts almost 4,500 businesses in the food industry, more than one restaurant per 1,000 people, an unprecedented number by Middle Eastern standards.
Tel Aviv also sports many fine dining establishments, that have received numerous prizes from food magazines around the world in recent years, that helped give Tel Aviv the “outstanding” title.
Jerusalem was not forgotten by Saveur, with the city’s Mahane Yehuda Market recommended among the best ancient markets together with Istanbul's and Bangkok's night markets.
