Tel Aviv is a vibrant metropolis. However, having tried food from the region in the past, although I was excited — as I’m always thrilled to experience cultures through eating —  I didn’t have these wild expectations as I’m more of a guac than a hummus girl, pita, I could take or leave, and I banned an ex from kissing me after he grabbed felafels from a place downstairs from his apartment in the West Village. Despite all of this I was genuinely pumped as I ate my way through Tel Aviv. Each meal was better than the last and I’m writing this in NYC, I’m hardcore craving a boureka.
