Dr. Shakshuka
3 Beit Eshel Street Cuisines: ArabicAbout
With its long, shared tables; great food and prices; happy customers; and helpful staff, this is one of the best ethnic restaurants in the country. Shakshuka is a pan-fried casserole of poached eggs and spicy tomato sauce; Dr. Shakshuka's many versions of this dish come from Libya and have been the best in Jaffa for two and a half generations. But there's much more here: Tripoli-style couscous with mafrum (potato stuffed with ground meat, served with stewed beef and vegetable soup); stuffed vegetables; kishke (North African-style intestine stuffed with meat and rice); grilled lamb patties; and fresh grilled or fried fish. Main courses come with a meze of fresh pita and eight Middle Eastern salads. Lemonade is the drink of choice; a la carte, the meze is NIS 15 ($3.75/£1.90).
