The food in Israel is amazing. With a steady diet of falafel, hummus, and pitas, we were ready to go all week. I could have eaten only pitas with the different mixtures we dipped them in all week and I would have been happy.

We had really, really good chicken-stuffed figs at
Eucalyptis in Jerusalem, outside the Old City. I didn't get pictures, but I just found the recipe on the website. If I find all of the ingredients I am going to attempt to be a cook. (If you go to the Eucalyptis link, the Stuffed Figs are pictured on the right side).

The other restaurant that I really liked was
Azura in Jerusalem. It was an Iraqi restaurant, and it was really good. We tried the dumpling soup, which was great, a cinnamon beef eggplant contraption, and an beef eggplant meal with a spicy red sauce that was really good. Next time I go to Jerusalem,
I'll make sure to check the local blogs to see what the best food places are. (And then I'll talk to the people I know in Israel to see if they agree).

The food was great. I think I'll go by the
Pita Shack a little bit more until I go back.
