Fodor's Expert Review Last Chance

On the main highway just outside Jericho, this restaurant run by an Israeli family specializes in meat dishes like chicken schnitzel and pastries filled with spicy ground beef. The large breakfast menu features shakshuka with tomato, spices, and egg; quick bites include potato-filled pastries, hummus, and salads. Try the meat-stuffed dates, drizzled in tahini and sweet date honey, accompanied by a glass of freshly squeezed pomegranate juice. Ask owner Vered Tayeb-Sinai to show you around the family's date orchards, just behind the restaurant. The restaurant also sells boxes of dates and runs a small guesthouse for overnight stays.
