At the end of 13 years, most of them successful, and after a severe corona crisis, today (Sunday) Chef Yosef (Yossi) Sheetrit announced that the "David and Yosef" restaurant, which he founded with his partner Dudu Almkeys and operated on Montefiore Street in Tel Aviv, is closing.
The closure joins quite a few other restaurants that have closed recently, for all sorts of reasons, including Chef Segev Moshe's veteran "Segev Art" restaurant, which announced this last week to his followers on Instagram.
Sheetrit announced the closure this morning in a farewell message on his Facebook page: "13 years ago I took the initiative. I found a place, found a partner and set off at the David and Yosef restaurant. We started slowly, built the road patiently, gained a crowd and the restaurant was full every evening."
After that we moved to Montefiore.
We added another partner to the trip and continued in the new abode.
We knew ups and downs, experiences we will remember for a lifetime, we touched tens of thousands of people, we visited delusional places, we cooked for presidents, dignitaries and everyone. "
"But 3 years ago, something turned off for me. I knew it was no longer me. The way changed in front of me and I did not feel belonging. The audience changed, time changed, people changed and I did not want. I did not want !!! I did not feel it was mine, I did not pray for it "So now I can tell you, this month," David and Joseph "has closed. That's it.
"Mixed feelings of joy and sadness pass through my heart, but mostly joy. Joy that we are done. Because it was no longer that. And the way was lost to her. It became ugly. I did not like to enter a place that was no longer mine in feelings. Always follow your truth, to "Be blinded by silver or clothing details, it's all fiction. Not everything that glitters is gold. And not everything that glitters in gold."
"So this is it, it was impossible to continue. I realized it was the end. And it's good that way.
I want to say thank you to everyone. To reach him. "
"Thank you for the 13 years that have ended. That left me many memories and also many scars. That shaped me and also made me happy. That I was taught that friends are only in Egged. That I was taught that passwords are a strong thing but not really applicable. "With him. That being yourself is the most important thing and that family is always but always in the first place because they are always by your side no matter what. Thank you for a period that taught me a lot."
