 | |  |  | Abu el Afiya: The most famous place in Tel Aviv-Jaffa | Tip Rating:   Satisfaction:  |  |  | |  |
First I'll have to tell you a story, which I heard from a friend of mine. A tourist from Germany, who was visiting Israel, told my friend that she was shocked that we, Israelis, eat dinner at 11pm. My reaction to this story was: "She should have gone to Abouelafia at 4 am" ;-) No, it's not a custom in Israel to eat dinner at 11pm or 4 am, but sometimes we have good reasons to do so. Abouelafia is the most famous bakery in Tel Aviv, if not in the whole country. It is open 24 hours a day and it is a very busy place. Since Tel Aviv is known as the city that never sleeps, we do party a lot. Once we're done partying, in most of the cases, Abouelafia is a must. I guess for many of us it became tradition. And it tastes sooooooooo good! Leave a Comment Theme: BakeryPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterAddress: Yefet Street (the main Street)

| | | | Abu el Afiya: Yafo's "must" bakery | Satisfaction: | | | | |
This is a well known bakery in ancient Yafo (Jaffa), which most people would consider to be a "must". I know this place since I was a child, and though it is not as good as it used to be, they do have some good pastries. They make good sesame "bagels", Pitas, Burekas, Sambusak, and other forms of Arabic / Middle-Eastern / Levantine / Mediterranean pastry. It's open around the clock, Monday to Friday in the evening. There may be a queue of people when you come there, at all times, but it goes quickly.
The pizzas and sesame bagels are the best.

That's on the main street of Yafo, across the street from the wonderful Clock Garden, and about 5-10 minutes drive from the center of Tel Aviv. 5 minutes from the beach.
