"The menu at Rittenhouse’s Dizengoff is almost 70/30 veg to meat. Only one of their silky hummuses has meat in it, the mezzes are mostly (fantastic) salads, and you can happily skip the fried dorade for the tender smoked cabbage. Since everything here is good, you’ll have to be strategic after ordering a chai soda or glass of rosé—will it be the warm hummus pitryot with amber-spiced mushrooms, or the endive and orange salad with pistachios? Trust us, and just order everything where vegetables are the main event. It’s all inventive, ideally balanced with spice and texture, and although you’ll leave full, you’ll feel as light as when you walked in." - candis mclean
