"At the heart of Upper Buena Vista, Branja, from MasterChef Israel winner Tom Aviv, offers the city a new take on cuisine found on every corner of this city. Here, every dish tells a story: The Falafish, a playful combination of falafel and fish, and the Tuktuk kebab, a symphony of spices and textures, exemplifies Aviv’s flair for fusing Levantine flavors with a modern approach. The Fishwarma, another highlight, is a melody of fish marinated in spices, epitomizing the restaurant’s creative spirit. Industrial chic meets retro elegance at Branja, a setting adorned with Tel Avivian art and a chef’s table once housed at the iconic Delano Hotel that complements the food, creating an atmosphere as dynamic and innovative as the menu it showcases." - Olee Fowler
