Fortunately Haifa is famous for both it's Arab restaurants and Jewish-Arab co-existance. Possibly the best falafel in the country, and there is this place where they sell absolutely wonderful baklawa...  |
Hmm... I think you're selling your own cuisine too short. It's definitely different from other Middle Eastern food, sometimes because the original Middle Eastern recipes have Eastern European / North African influences.
Of course, I've not actually had proper Israeli food because you lot refuse to let me in
but what I've actually tasted is pretty interesting, and different too. Savoury kugel with tahini was the most memorable, but that might be an abomination unto the Lord, so maybe it's not the best example.
