After chef Yuval Ben Neriah explored the places and tastes of China, Thailand and other East Asian countries for three months, he transferred his inspiration into the creation of Tel Aviv’s most exciting contemporary Asian restaurant. Taizu’s mostly seafood menu, including dishes such as har gow dumplings filled with black tiger shrimp and artichoke, as well as a ceremoniously presented fried whole sea bass accompanied by lettuce, chilli-lime and fish sauce, are served inside a swanky industrial-glam space. Every Sunday for dinner, Taizu also hosts a popular Indian Feast featuring twists like duck bread with fenugreek, onion and paneer-stuffed pot stickers.

It’s no surprise that Taizu earned the title of Time Out’s Best Restaurant for 2 years in a row (and other accolades the years before) with their “Asiaterranean” cuisine, an extensive, seafood-heavy menu of small plates, amazing flavor combinations and consistent craftsmanship. Chef Yuval Ben Neriah’s restaurant is one of the best in town, and Pastry Chef Ana Shapiro’s desserts are in a league of their own thanks to a fusion of savory, sweet and unique ingredients like curry, saffron and other surprisingly harmonious spices.

After travelling through Southeast Asia studying its unique cuisine, Israeli chef Yuval Ben Neriah opened Taizu on Menachem Begin Road. Ben Neriah defines his restaurant’s cuisine as “AsiaTerranean”, and his menu includes elaborate dishes that combine Asian flavours and local ingredients, such as dumplings with shrimps and Jerusalem artichoke and steak seasoned with lemongrass and Vietnamese spices. The staff at the restaurant recommend ordering a variety of dishes to appreciate the well-crafted menu.

Part of the city's influx of Asian restaurants, the "Asia-terranean" kitchen of Taizu is a nod to the street food of India, China, Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. The interior design is based on the five elements of Chinese philosophy: water, wood, fire, earth, and metal, each of which is also represented in the style of food. Visit in a group and share plates such as lemongrass-infused steak, seafood dumplings, spicy Thai salad, and fragrant Indian curry.

Taizu, the self-described ‘Asiaterranean’ kitchen, quickly jumped to the top of diners’ and critics’ radars since opening, and has retained top status ever since - now, with brunch!. Like many of Israel’s best breakfasts, Taizu have adopted the style of serving a selection of small mezze-style appetizers for sharing across the table, including refills. In this case, they are a far cry from standard Israeli starters like tuna salad and feta cheese - think shrimp dumplings and fish tartare for starters, and a very creative curry shakshuka.Menachem Begin 23, Tel Aviv
