Gzuztra

Gzuztra is located on the Herzliya beach, next to the Hotel Dan Accadia. The word Gzuztra means balcony and it is quite appropriate for the restaurant. It has a full wall of windows facing the sea. The menu of the kosher restaurant is a new experience. It is unstructured and the dishes are not that big and a single meal will consist of two or three dishes. The whole concept of the restaurant is that guests should share their dishes, enabling everyone to taste different kinds of food.                    Part of the menu is sushi and you all shoud know by...

SPACE

2 years I am already in the gym “Space” which is located on Sokolov Street 6, right next to the AM:PM. It is relatively new and offers many different things. I pay around 200 shekels a month for a 2 years contract and can use all the machines and can as well attend all courses they offer, which are spinning, aerobic, zumba and many others that help you to stay in shape. After you sign a contract with them, you get a personal trainer for the first training and he/she helps you to figure out your perfect training-system, meaning which machines you should use and how often you should exercise. Additionally the trainer creates a plan with you for...

Chocolate by the Bald Man

My friends and I went to Max Brenner in Herzliya Pituach and we ordered the Chocolate Fondue which they call “Sharing”, because it’s definitely too much for one person, but perfect to share with your friends. We got different kinds of fruits and hot chocolate as well as ice cream, a small pancake and some other chocolate stuff. Very tasty!!! Another thing I can recommend are the shakes they offer. My favorite milkshake is the white chocolate granita. Extremely sweet, but amazing!!!!“The experience is all about the chocolate and different ways to open up to it”If you think, you can only order food with chocolate, it is almost right, but you can...

Theodor Bar

This bar is the heart of the city (not including Herzliya Pituach) in terms of nightlife. It is located on Sokolov Street 29, right next to the Cinemateque of Herzliya. The bar opened 1 year ago and since then it has huge success. If you go there on Mondays, you will experience a nice evening of karaoke. Sometimes they invite bands to play and after the bands finish performing, the stage is yours. Every few weeks, there is a ladies night on Tuesdays, where girls get drinks much cheaper than usually. I know what I am talking abo...

Pizza and Yogurth!!!!

I think everyone who lives in Herzliya knows about Sderot Chen, which is next to the Kikar on Sokolov. You can find two of my favorite choices of food there, one is pizza from Agvania and my favorite desert “Yogurt” from "Passiflora". Actually the Yogurt is not only a desert, it is almost a whole meal, at least for me. Agvania only offers pizza, but very thin ones and I think even the thinnest I have eaten in Israel so far. One big peace costs 16/17 Shekel and a whole pizza costs around 60 shekel, which is really not cheap, but if you divide it with friends the price is ok. The Yogurt place next to it offers not only Yogurt but also different...

Outlet Herzliya

The outlet is located in the main business district of Herzliya Pituach. The good thing about the mall is that the shops have yearlong sales, meaning that you can find mostly winter clothes in the summer and summer clothes in the winter... There are shops like Mango, Castro, Honigman, Dan Cassidi and many more. You can also find cafes there as well as fast food. The bookstore next to the mall is one of the few stores in the area, where you can find English books and really a lot of them. I love this shop, beca...

Kitchen Supply

If you guys are looking for kitchen supply or need new stuff for pessach, you should check out 2 shops which I can recommend.One is located on Ben Gurion Street and is called “Techno Idan” and they offer almost everything you need for your kitchen. They have a big amount of disposable dishes and silverware, but also things like pans, or pots, and any other supply (besides electronic stuff) you would need for the kitchen. The other shop is called Sheshet and is located on Hess Street 48, which is not far away from the Central Bus station in Herzliya. They offer kitchen supply as well as decorative stuff, which are both qualitative and cheap.  You...

Triple Meat

Although it is just a small place it is one of my favorite places here in Herzliya. It is called triple meat and is located on Ben Gurion Street 2 (next to the kikar) next to the bus-stop in the direction of Ra’anana… What do they offer? I can recommend the toast, which is white bread with a sauce of your choice. I always take Ketchup and Mayonnaise, but I know they have much more, as sweet chili, honey mustard, other types of mayonnaise and so on… then you choose your favorite type of sausage and at the end you take salad or any other sauce you would like to have on your toast. Then they put it into a toaster and after ~5 min its ready and you...

Best Breakfast All Day/Night Long - BENEDICT

I absolutely loved Benedict. The coffee was perfect and the food was everything I could ask for. They offer a big selection of breakfast dishes from pancakes to sweet breakfast to all kind of egg dishes. People told me that “Eggs Benedict” is simply the best; it is nicely surrounded by fresh bread, but you get it with ham and therefore Benedict is not kosh...

Some impressions of last night's standup

Great show Isaac, we all enjoyed it very much! great jokes (except the the one about me... "Ze Germans") and great musicians. McLarens is a small and cozy place on Ben Gurion street with a lot of different beers and different snacks. I tried Kriek, a cherry beer, which tasted very good. Before Isaac entered the stage, his friend Tray played some guitar and sang a few cool songs. The moment Isaac started, people laughed about his jokes and enjoyed his show. He got a lot of applause and we saw that Isaac seemed comfortable on stage. After he finished his program, Dora entered the stage and sang "Mercedes Benz". Take a look at the pictures and film,...

Israel Week

07.03-10.03 - The Israel Week @ IDC is over and I saw some good stuff there…They had amazing food, like falafel (only 12NIS), big potatoes and sweet potatoes with sour crème (I tasted it, and although it cost 22NIS, it was really worth it). Besides of that, I saw amazing desserts, strawberries with Crème and strawberry shakes, they looked incredibly tasty. The highlight was that you could get a glass of wine during your breaks, as well as during your study time… I saw students walking in with their glasses into the class. This, you will only find at IDC.This week didn’t only offer food, but also clothes and paintings. In the Arison Lobby you...

Japanika

Japanika in Herzliya Pituach, as you may have guessed, is a restaurant mainly for Japanese food, but their expertise is Sushi, the best Sushi in town... if you ask me! It is my favorite restaurant here in Herzliya and since they began offering "Take Away" (Mishloach, since Feb '11), I'm having Sushi at least once a week :)....

Papagayo

The best way to see what the Marina offers is to take a walk around. That's what I did a few days ago and I found the meat restaurant "Papagayo". It is located on the 2nd floor and you have a beautiful view on the many yachts of the por...

Herzliya Marina

Heyyyyyy all :) The Yacht Port is one of the most amazing places in Herzliya, which is called Marina . There are many different restaurants, shops and other attractions about which I will write in the future. ENJOYYYYY :) As I said already, the Marina in Herzliya is one of the main attractions the city offers. The port, surrounded by restaurants where you can eat and drink, take a walk or just enjoy a nice evening. In addition, you can visit the Arena Mall, which offers exclusive shops and boutiques. The renovations were finished just a few month ago and it's definitely worth a visit (Hours of operation:...
