ملکا اثر ایال شانی

What a fantastic place. We loved almost every dish and we tried many different dishes. Well seasoned, fresh, high quality products, balanced flavors.
**Do not miss the fish blini - it is heaven!!!
Prices are high but it was worth it.

Quite a disappointment and in the end even a stomach ache
The good part, the service was fine and the place is nice and interesting with vegetable all over the tables and the furniture pieces
The bad part, the food which was maybe interesting in some aspects but not particularly tasty. I like original and different, I like new mixes and new compositions but in the end the taste is the essential factor
We tried a few dishes. The hot blini filled with deep ontribe onions was a fine dish with strips of meat in a blintzes . The only problem was the blintzes literally feel apart due to the liquid in the meat.
We also tried the Golden Eggplant which was a good dishes, the Maggie tomatoes pasta which was basically Pasta with Tomato and onions sauce and was not a bad dish but of no particular interest.
The Arab cabbage cake looked great but was inedible. The cabbage was way over salted and in term of balance of taste it was a disaster. Probably the reason for my wife stomachache even though she only ate a slice of it before giving up.
The best part and probably the only dish not composed by the celebrity chef was the Apple crumble which was great in term of texture and taste.
In the end an expensive meal with few interesting and tasty dishes.
I would not go back but it might be worth going there ones for the experience and knowing how a dish called "Pile of tomatoes" is worth more that 40 NIS.
