1. Thai House<\/h2>\n\n

A culinary institution that is much more than a restaurant. Chef Yariv Malili has succeeded in doing what few have done before him – educating the Israeli palate to authentic, spicy, and uncompromising Thai flavors. When you enter, the noise of Bograshov disappears and is replaced by the scents of lemongrass, galangal, and fresh coconut milk squeezed on the spot. <\/p>\n\n

The magic here lies in the precise simplicity. There is no attempt to be clever, but a desire to bring Thailand as it is – colorful, full of flavors, and sometimes sweaty from the spiciness. This is the ideal place for a large family meal where the table is filled with shared plates, with sticky rice on the side that absorbs all the wonderful sauces. <\/p>\n\n

Must-try dishes:<\/strong> Pad Kapao (minced meat with Thai basil and a fried egg), Som Tam (classic and spicy papaya salad), Sai Hua (Chiang Mai sausages rich in spices).<\/p>\n\n

2. Gigiin<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n

If you’re looking to feel like you’re in Tokyo for one evening, Gigiin is the answer. This is a modern and meticulous izakaya (Japanese bar), which brings a dim and sexy vibe to the heart of the city. The design, based on dark wood and dim lighting, creates immediate intimacy, and the kitchen produces Japanese dishes with surgical precision. <\/p>\n\n

The experience at Gigiin ranges from a luxury restaurant to a relaxed bar. You can sit here at the bar, sip quality sake, and snack on small and precise skewers grilled on a Japanese charcoal grill, or indulge in sushi dishes that showcase fish at a rare level of freshness. This is a place that is perfect for a romantic date where you want to impress, or for an evening with friends who appreciate high-quality raw fish. <\/p>\n\n

Must-try dishes:<\/strong> White grouper skewer (with tara and purple sweet potato), Nigiri Hamachi (seared fish belly with yuzu kosho), Smoked beet sashimi (a surprising dish with black garlic ponzu).<\/p>\n\n

3. Kab Kem<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

The little, wild, and nocturnal sister of “Thai House”. Yariv Malili has created here a place dedicated to the Thai “food next to alcohol” culture. The music here is louder, the atmosphere is more relaxed, and the food is designed to accompany glasses of gin and tonic or cold Thai beer. <\/p>\n\n

The menu is built from dishes that are fun to eat with your hands or share, with a strong emphasis on spicy-sour flavors that open the appetite and thirst. If at Thai House you come to eat a proper dinner, at Kab Kem you come to hang out, drink, and get a little dirty from fish sauce and chili. The energy in the place is always high and the vibe is young and vibrant. <\/p>\n\n

Must-try dishes:<\/strong> Pla Tot Samon Pai (fried sea bass with a pile of herbs), Nam Tok Nah (spicy seared beef slices salad), Morning Glory with crispy pork.<\/p>\n\n

4. ASA Izakaya (ASA)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

A neighborhood Japanese gem that manages to maintain authenticity and captivating simplicity. “ASA” is exactly the place you want under your house – unpretentious, pleasant, and serves comforting and tasty Japanese food. The place focuses on the classic izakaya experience, with a menu that combines Japanese grill dishes (yakitori) with sushi dishes and hot starters. <\/p>\n\n

Sitting here is pleasant and not binding, very suitable for a spontaneous dinner in the middle of the week. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere exudes the warmth of a small Japanese eatery. This is the place to order a glass of beer, some skewers and a good sushi roll, and feel that life is beautiful and calm, at least for a short hour. <\/p>\n\n

Must-try dishes:<\/strong> Yakitori skewers (chicken thigh\/green onion), handmade gyoza, rotating special rolls from the board.<\/p>\n\n

5. Taizu<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Chef Yuval Ben Neriah has created in Taizu one of the most appreciated and stable restaurants in Israel. This is not just another Asian restaurant, but a journey that deconstructs and reconstructs the flavors of Southeast Asia with a local elite interpretation. The impressive space and meticulous service turn every meal here into a festive event. <\/p>\n\n

Taizu’s menu is based on local raw materials using Asian techniques, and each dish looks like a small work of art. The restaurant’s Indian Sundays have already become a tradition in Tel Aviv, but every day of the week you will find here food that manages to surprise again with textures and complex flavor combinations. A must-visit place for every self-respecting foodie. <\/p>\n\n

Must-try dishes:<\/strong> Taizu Tartar (inside a crispy cone), Shanhanizi dumplings (veal cheek and clear soup), Shrimp and calamari curry (with jasmine rice).<\/p>\n\n

The restaurant, located in the old north, has become a crowd favorite thanks to its ability to satisfy a “craving” for good sushi without unnecessary ceremonies, but with a lot of taste and attention to freshness. <\/p>\n\n

The menu is wide and offers something for everyone – from lovers of raw fish to those who prefer a hot stir-fry from the wok.

If you are looking for the roughness, noise, and strong flavors of a night market in Thailand – this is the place. Located in one of the coolest alleys near the Great Synagogue, this restaurant offers an experience that is the furthest from “stuffy”. You sit close together, drink beer from the bottle, and eat kicking food. <\/p>\n\n

The kitchen here focuses on Thai street food, which does not apologize for spiciness or strong smells of fish sauce. The music is always happy, the crowd is diverse, and the feeling is of a spontaneous party that happened in the middle of the street. The dishes come out quickly, hot, and excite the palate. <\/p>\n\n

Must-try dishes:<\/strong> Som Tam Isan (papaya salad in a rural and very spicy version), Yam Pla (deconstructed fried fish salad), Nam Tok (seared meat salad).<\/p>\n\n

At TYO, the Japanese chef Yama-San conducts a kitchen that combines ancient Japanese tradition with a glittering Tel Aviv nightlife atmosphere. This is the place to see and be seen, when the food does not fall in its level from the luxurious atmosphere. The sushi here is considered one of the best in the city, with fish of the highest quality and precise cutting. <\/p>\n\n

The designed space in Neve Tzedek exudes luxury, and the large bar in the center is the beating heart of the place. In the evenings, the music rises and the restaurant turns into a kind of luxurious lounge that is fun to spend long hours in. The combination of excellent cocktails, world-class sushi, and beautiful people makes TYO a very sought-after destination. <\/p>\n\n

The place combines wonderfully between an urban street atmosphere and meticulous plating and complex flavors. <\/p>\n\n

Thai 148 excels in small and medium-sized dishes that are fun to share, which allows you to taste a wide variety of flavors in one meal.
