Friday 19 July
A week ago on the day of our
arrival at Zafririm, we went for a beer-tasting at the brewery and restaurant
run in a pleasant reed-roofed alcove by Aram Dekel (who brews and grills) and Bat-Sheva (who makes goat cheese
and other tasties).
We tasted Crispy (a
wheat beer; all the others were barley); Deep Soul (our favorite, with date
syrup); Touching Blade (with allspice), and Black Ice (a porter with chili). There was also a myriad of appetizers,
excellent garlic dip and baba ghanouj, salads, wafers, fresh hot pita, and pickled
vegetables.
So today, when we're all leaving
in various directions, we went back for a real meal. Along with the beers and appetizers, we
shared a platter each of grilled homemade chorizo and köfte kebabs, each served
with abundant hot fries and salad; and the vegetable special above, an artful platter of beets and kohlrabi with three spicy sauces.
And after dinner, Rona drove us off to the
airport.
