The tour, part history and part culinary, follows the story of a Messianic-Christian community from Germany and their attempt to establish a utopian society in the Holy Land. We’ll look at their lives in the late 19th century, at the remote colony and the new technological innovations they brought. We’ll visit at the local blacksmith and sausage maker; look at one of oldest mechanical olive oil press mills in the world (still operating!) Gunthner’s café dance floor, Kuebler’s beer garden, bawling surface and if possible, go down to the underground tunnel leading to the winery cellars. In the second part of the tour we will enter the Sarona Market- the biggest roofed market in Israel. The market has a variety of delis, small restaurants, coffee shops and food stalls. We’ll walk between stands and aromas and stop to try some of the variety: Vom-Fass is an oils and liqueurs company founded in the 19th century in Germany Bavaria. We’ll dip freshly baked bread in their specially made mixes, and sip a ‘schluck’ of excellent liquor. Afterwards we’ll continue to one of the best pizzerias in Israel, made according to a secret recipe with flour milled in Aliche Italy, with a variety of rich supplements served on a wooden tray. Now that we have built up an appetite we’ll go and taste French crepes with rich fillings that bring alive the Parisian quarter of Montparnasse. At “The Tzadik”, the Tel-Aviv branch of a Jerusalem based deli, we’ll nosh some oriental dishes and fried delicacies served with various pickles, salads and dips. Then we’ll head to ‘Burecas Lewinsky’ the famous Lewinsky market’s pastry bakery operating since 1922, which specializes in small pastries with rich fillings.
