Have you read Cereal Magazine's blog lately? They recently posted the above images from a trip to Tel Aviv. I loved the way these images capture the city. Tel Aviv is probably the most "fun" city in Israel. It's beachy and laid-back -- with an almost European vibe, but still has the rich, Israeli flavor that permeates the entire country. Here's my quick run down of "The White City"...
Tel Aviv:
EAT | Jaffa's fish restaurants off the beach are awesome and I can't get enough of the old-school street fare in Israel -- hummus, shwarma, shakshuka, kebab or falafel
SLEEP | pricey: Renaissance / Artplus Hotel || cheap: Old Jaffa Hostel & Guest House
PLAY | Jaffa - old port, flea market, old city / Tel Aviv - market

Have you read Cereal Magazine? I'm a little obsessed. Not only because it's about food and travel - two of our passions here at mr.&mrs.h, but it's different than your typical travel magazine. It highlights places that aren't on the front cover of Travel&Leisure, Departures, etc (not that there's anything wrong with those), but it's just not the "same ol', same ol'" resort that's been covered a million times.
Instead Cereal ventures to travel destinations that pique the imagination... somewhere a little off the beaten path or maybe a major city you've been to several times, but they'll cover a restaurant or shop that's doing something new and inventive. It's always educational too. For example, this past issue they covered pepper... one of the most common spices we use, but the history, and information was phenomenal. And, the previous issue they covered Ravello, Italy--a hidden jewel on the Amalfi Coast. Plus, the photography is gorgeous and there are few things I love reading more than a "cult-magazine" that inspires my appetite and adventures.
