Jerusalem
Tel: 02- 624-6242
Beautifully decorated old building renovated into

Austrian Hospice
Via Dolorosa 37
Old City
Jerusalem
Tel: 02-627-1463
If you are shooting in the Old City, a must place
to take a break is the Austrian Hospice. Situated
at the 1st turnoff from the Via Dolorosa, turn in
to the Austrian Hospice. It’s a beautiful building,
and they have a small cafeteria and a garden. For
lunch they only have coffee, beer, wines, sandwiches
and soup of the day; the Austrian pastry is great!
If you wish to sleep, it’s really basic: a cheap,
clean room. No TV. Get the room with the balcony.
The Austrian Hospice is a real unique experience -
a pearl in the Old City. 10-15$

The restaurant is located in a nice small street in

there is a second hand book shop that is worth visiting.
Because there are not a lot of places that are open
24 hours in the city, Bolinat fills a much needed
niche.
Cacao
Jerusalem Cinematheque building
11 Hebron Road (P.O. Box 8561)
Jerusalem
The Cacao restaurant is located in the Jerusalem
Cinematheque movie theatre building. Every year, the
Cinematheque holds the Jerusalem film festival. The
view from the terrace outside the restaurant is amazing,
but the food is average: pasta, ficacha, and salads.
The only problem is the parking. You have to walk
down many steps to the Cinematheque building that
is in a valley below and park in the street above.
Take this into consideration. Cacao is also a good
place to eat dinner. 20$

Coffee Mill
Emek Refaim 23
Jerusalem
Tel: 02-5661665
In the heart of the German Colony section of Jerusalem
there is a little coffee shop for which I have special
affection. Besides a great choice of coffees and teas,

I particularly appreciate the

design is delightful and since the café is
not located in the center of town, parking is relatively

Christian Quarter, Old City
Jerusalem
Tel: 02 627-7230
They say that finding the best hummus is not an easy
task. Also not all hummus experts agree on what they
would regard as the best hummus restaurant in Jerusalem.
One place I recommend in the Old City is Lina, a very
simple restaurant that serves only hummus. If you
really want to feel the oriental experience, this
is one of the best places to eat this delicious dish.

Offering traditional Japanese food, such as: miso
soup, generous portions of sushi, teppanyaki, tempura,
sukiyaki and teriyaki-style dishes and suba, the Sokura
restaurant has become a well-deserved favorite of
Jerusalemites. The restaurant is very clean, and intimate.
The owner-cook Boaz Tsairi lived in Japan for many
years where he was a susi master in Tokyo. What I
like about this restaurant is that its menu is consistent.
You will always get a very good meal that stays simple
unlike many Japanese restaurants that constantly invent
unusual dishes in the hopes of attracting new customers,
regardless of the quality of the dishes.
