Rutenberg The fertile soil and abundant water resources of Emek HaMa’ayanot are the elements upon which the Rutenberg restaurant was established. Here, on the banks of the Jordan river, Chef Izhar Sa’ar and his partner Hilla built their farm which produces the fruit & veg and fresh herbs that end up on the restaurant menu. Aside from his own produce, Sa’ar uses local products that reflect his deep care for sustainability and food traditions. With its beautiful open views, and delicious dishes, the Rutenberg is a true celebration of Israeli farm-to-table cuisine. rutenberg.co.il
