Finding a free table for New Year's Eve, certainly in the 90th minute, can be an impossible task.

Waiting inside for chopsticks: four rolls to choose from (Gigi Roll, Thai Roll, Monsoon Roll, Super Spicy Salmon and others);
four gyoza units filled with chicken;
A pair of ban meat ontrib;
A pair of crispy chicken buns and salad to choose from.

What's better, a kiss at the end of the year from your other half or a box of decadent and indulgent desserts?
Dilemmas, dilemmas.
Anyway, a Fatish (it's Fat-ish, yes?) bakery in Holon (the embroiderers 23) is celebrating New Year's Eve with a mega-case that contains all the following sweet sins: a pair of crappins (a muffin-shaped croissant, filled with Oreo and filled with white chocolate and berries);
four types of croissants (with fillings such as pistachio, Nutella and Kinder);
Four Amsterdam cookies to choose from;
Brownie cubes and eight alfahors units.
260 shekels.
Still in dilemma?
In the hammer they remove that the case is suitable for a couple or a foursome, so maybe you can combine both dessert and a kiss.

Like the limited edition winter fruit boxes of "Garden fruit", for example.
You will find a variety of winter fruits and extra-seasonal fruits rich in vitamins such as strawberries, oranges, kiwis, blueberries, coconuts, sabers, persimmons, pomelo, grapes, passion fruit and pineapple.
A non-edible bonus: a postcard detailing the benefits of the fruit, so you can lecture on the wonders of pomelo, the virtues of sabers and the delights of strawberries.
We swear we thought about it now.
