Maarag

$$

This kosher restaurant's colorful dishes highlight Galilean delicacies, in particular the rich Israeli breakfast with homemade jams or grilled baby eggplant with tahini. For a light lunch try the plentiful salads, especially the halloumi cheese and sautéed mushrooms served over romaine lettuce. The sun-filled gallery inside the café fills the walls with color and showcases the works by artists from the local special needs community (who also receive part of the café's profits).
