Lunel | A surprising combination Florentin neighborhood eatery Lunel combines brasserie chic with downtown Tel Aviv buzz. The kitchen is helmed by chef Yinon El Al who has created a surprising menu that fuses French cuisine with the flavors and dishes of the Yemenite table he grew up with. The menu includes freshly-baked kubaneh (a fluffy, doughy, Yemenite bread) served with tomato paste and zhug, handmade pastas, juicy smashburgers, steak and eggs, and more. The restaurant also offers a more accessible, scaled-down version of its brunch spread, with dishes priced at up to NIS 50. With its warm and relaxed atmosphere, delicious cocktails and Tel Aviv vibe, Lunel offers the perfect Friday morning brunch experience. @lunel.tlv
