Here as promised my #2 of Top 5 Chart - Adora restaurant.
- Décor: Simple & smart, “light” bistro style, two floors with a brand new terrace (for smokers or just cigarette-smell fans). Don’t miss the toilet entrance upstairs. A short break between appetizer and the main course can be the perfect timing for visiting up there.
- Style: Mediterranean influenced by French and Asian cuisine. One of the favorite chef’s ingredients is fresh/cooked/baked/dry coriander. So, those who are not amateurs of this spice, please check carefully that issue with the waiter in advance. If you like eggplants (the chef does like them) – try out Falafel aux eggplants/aubergine. “Aux” – is my invention to let the dish a nice French sound.
- Reservation: during summer months is essential. If you’re more than two people, please make a phone reservation. Don’t forget to verify the time, day and month. I know what I’m talking about…
- Content: an appetizer and main course. Tap water is served for free and periodically refilled by passing waiters.
- Budget: starting from 59NIS. Pay attention to extra payments, like bread and additions to some starters and main dishes. Don’t complain afterwards that you were not warned (!).
- Recommended Dishes:
- Bread with the mixture of don’t-remember-which-very-delicious seeds and some nice butter-and-garlic-confit-and-arisa stuff to spread over it.
- Everything with seafood, fish, great risottos and nice vegetarian dishes; Don’t forget about creative desserts (for those who can afford them)!
- Service: Most of the time a waiter-hostess opens the door for you, which is already very nice. The service here is mostly very well. If you’re alone and need a company, locate yourself at the small bar, where a cute & smiley barmen is always happy to serve you, talk with you and, surely, drink you up (!).
- Ambience: French chansons by J.Dassin, M. Brandt and similar guys, girls, madams et monsieurs.
- Cosher: No. However, the food is still very delicious.
- Crowd:
- Locals who appreciate Avi Biton’s (chef) food
- Middle-aged and undefined age couples
- Simple but yet sophisticated guys like you and I.
