zichron and caeserea - israel: part 3


The day after the wedding, we started doing some sightseeing and went to a charming nearby little town atop a mountain, called Zichron. A lovely place with sho
ps and amazing food. Did I mention the food in Israel? I was expecting potato latkes and brisket {don't get me wrong, I love that food too} but it was anything but! There was actually a real Mediterranean feel to the food - fresh vegetables, salads, cheese, olives. Check out this antipasto dish...a work of art! And so tasty too. Every food experience I had in Israel was a good one!

After Zichron, we checked out nearby Caeserea
where 2000 year old ruins of an ancient city built by King Herod remain. Quite gorgeous!
