Last year, as I recall, I took and shared tons of food pics.  This year, because we are traveling with three teenage boys, we are quite glad to be renting a house from Tzemach through AirBnB.com.  Expenses have been much reduced, though I have missed the incredible Israeli hotel breakfasts previously reported on.

For the second time this trip, we splurged at a nice restaurant for lunch.  Having completed a wonderful time of worship and fellowship with our brothers at the Center for Jewish Christian Understanding and Cooperation, held at the Bible Lands Museum, we enjoyed a nice complimentary guided tour of the current special exhibit, David and Goliath in the Valley of Elah!! (Yes, you regular readers recall less than two weeks ago I wrote about some thoughts on Absalom, the antimessiah and the Valley of Elah!)

After the terrific tour, we walked across the parking lot to the Israel Museum for the purpose of eating in one of their two restaurants. We chose Modern Jerusalem Restaurant and were not disappointed.  The food was excellent with very nice presentation and wonderful attentive service.

Without going into details, I just want to make you drool…  Check out these pics of the entrees.  My only regret was not taking a pic of the tappas trays!

Prepare to drool….
