"Going for what you want, especially at breakfast time, can make all the difference between starting your day with another bowl of dry granola or a stack of something fluffy and buttery. And for us, an order of brown sugar ricotta Kubaneh toast from K’Far is more satisfying than finding a parking spot on Chestnut Street during our first trip around the block. Whether we’re stopping by the Israeli bakery and cafe to dine-in or pick up, the scent of the pistachio sticky bun is so unforgettable that we’d probably circle around 10 times just to get our hands on a few orders." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"On the ground floor of The Hoxton, K’Far does similar food as the sister restaurant Laser Wolf: Persian roasted lamb shank, fingerling potatoes with shipka peppers and pastries with Middle Eastern flavors. Their indoor space holds 18, and a sealed outdoor patio has space for 45 people. Weekend brunch starts at $65 per guest." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, will hartman
"From thick, buttery kubaneh topped with whipped brown sugar ricotta and egg sandwiches on pressed, crispy Jerusalem bagels to the selection of delicious pastries, there’s not much here we wouldn’t recommend at this Rittenhouse cafe. At prime time on weekends, you're going to have to wait in line just to order your pisachio sticky bun and coffee. That is, unless you can grab a seat at the counter, where you’ll get table service." - alison kessler, candis mclean
"With its open floor plan and excessive foliage, K’Far is kind of like an upgraded WeWork. The Israeli restaurant spans the entire hotel lobby at the Hoxton in Williamsburg, with a coffee cart and bar on one side, and a dining room on the other. Start your day on the coffee side, which has a ton of comfy chairs and some outlets. It turns into quite the scene by 10am, but if you don't mind some chatter, it’s a fun place to hunker down with a Yemeni latte and breakfast sandwich. You won’t get any free beer when you’re done, but you should definitely hit the bar for a martini." - sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore
"This Israeli restaurant from the people behind Laser Wolf is big, bright, and loungey (and located in the lobby of the same hotel, The Hoxton). Grab a seat in the main dining room and eat breakfast sandwiches served on sesame-encrusted Jerusalem bagels under a canopy of plants, or hang out on a couch in the greenhouse-like area that gets plenty of light. Just be sure to make a reservation, and don’t forget to order a pistachio sticky bun." - bryan kim, carina finn koeppicus, will hartman, sonal shah
