A business breakfast – Café 99, Dan Hotel Tel Aviv
Perhaps the most classic hotel in Tel Aviv, a destination for many celebrities visiting Israel, it has a timeless elegance. Breakfast with a sea view includes a wide selection of pastries, salads, omelets, and pancakes. The location is ideal for quiet conversation. Meetings can continue in the cozy lobby. This historic hotel is located on the seafront in a central, easily accessible area, with underground parking.
An hour alone in a beautiful place – Tel Aviv Hilton
Surrounded by blue, with an unobstructed view to the horizon. I like to sink into one of the many comfortable armchairs or sofas, under a large umbrella that protects me from the sun. I enjoy the pleasant sea breeze, especially on beautiful autumn and spring days. The sushi and light dishes are excellent. I work, write, and make phone calls in peace. It also has the advantage of convenient parking, which saves a lot of time.
A formal lunch with a client – Turkiz
High-quality food, trendy city bistro design with a view overlooking the sea. I would choose it for the fresh fish, the refined and original dishes, the certainty of quality that awaits us, and the pleasure of seeing the sea from above in a cheerful and dynamic city environment that illustrates well the many faces and spirit of Tel Aviv: the city that never stops. The nearby parking lot makes it the ideal choice for a perfect business lunch.
A relaxing lunch – Manta Ray
Manta Ray, on the Tel Aviv seafront, not far from ancient Jaffa, whose coastline can be admired from the terrace. Beach house decor, just a few meters from the waves. A relaxing lunch break under the studio and at the same time on the beach. You can’t take your eyes off the sea while eating excellent mezze and colorful Mediterranean food. I like to eat outside, in the front row overlooking the sea. Ideal for giving a client a feel for Tel Aviv, which blends East and West.
A trendy aperitif – The Library Bar, The Norman Tel Aviv
The ideal place for a trendy aperitif in the heart of the city, a stone’s throw from the famous Rothschild Boulevard, Tel Aviv’s business and nightlife hub. Located on the ground floor of the luxurious boutique hotel The Norman, a renovated historic building characteristic of Bauhaus architecture. The bar is refined and intimate and serves excellent cocktails. Ideal for quiet conversations without sacrificing a trendy and refined atmosphere.
An ideal place for informal meetings – Suzannah
Whether on the shaded terrace or inside, it is a simple but picturesque and characteristic café-bistro. Close to the Studio, in Tel Aviv’s oldest neighborhood called Neve Zedek, known for its art galleries, cultural centers, restaurants, and historic facades, Suzannah serves light dishes ideal for informal gatherings. On long summer afternoons, meetings often stretch until sunset without anyone noticing the passing of time.
A dinner to intrigue – 2C, Azrieli Center
This restaurant is located on the 49th floor of the round tower of the Azrieli complex, consisting of three towers (the round tower, the square tower, and the triangular tower) that have become one of the symbols of Tel Aviv. The view of the city of Tel Aviv is breathtaking. It is an ideal place to intrigue a client arriving from abroad and immediately make them feel the frenetic vibe of the city and the unstoppable rhythm of the Start-up Nation. The menu is varied. The French-inspired Mediterranean food is of high quality.
A gourmet dinner – Pastel
A stone’s throw from the Museum of Modern Art, the Opera House, and the Courthouse, Pastel embodies the spirit of Tel Aviv, which breathes culture. Its modern and elegant design with high ceilings has won international awards. The refined and original menu of a contemporary gourmet brasserie, prepared with quality ingredients and ingenuity, guarantees a memorable evening. I love watching the city’s buildings lit up at sunset, creating a futuristic atmosphere.
The latest trendy spot – Café Popular
Inside the Jacob Samuel boutique hotel, in the resurgent “Old North” of historic Dizengoff St. Divided into two floors operating in parallel, the ground floor is bistro-style with a terrace, while the basement is mainly a bar. The stated concept is that of a “House of Fun,” and the well-known chef Avi Biton is at the helm, making the place particularly trendy. Central to Tel Aviv’s nightlife scene, tourists and locals flock here for brunch or a drink.
The place to be and be seen – Dallal Restaurant
A typical renovated building in the Neve Zedek neighborhood, the architecture and decor are enchanting. You always bump into someone you know. On weekends, they also serve an excellent breakfast with homemade croissants. Before or after eating, it’s always pleasant to take a stroll through the picturesque streets of Neve Zedek with its shop windows, galleries, cultural centers, and historic facades. For those who prefer to walk by the sea, it’s just a stone’s throw away.
