The chowder festival that will warm your stomach • The Japanese-French feast that awaits you in Ramat Gan • The new winter menu at the restaurant of the "Chef Games" graduate • The section brings out the gizzard


The "Amesh" restaurant bar from the NOX group (Lilinblum 30, Tel Aviv) presents a new winter menu, overseen by chef Kafir Yanin ("Chef Games"), and which uses seasonal ingredients such as mushrooms, chestnuts and root vegetables.

Gobble and comfort yourself before going up to dance at the bar (not mandatory on a full stomach, just a suggestion): Cauliflower tzatziki (fried cauliflower, chimichurri and sheep yogurt tzatziki - NIS 37);

Fish tartare (avocado, crème fraîche, horseradish, apple and celery salsa, herb vinaigrette, tomato cream and rice puffs - NIS 76);

mushroom risotto (roasted mushroom ragu, porcini stock, parmesan - NIS 84);

Polenta (corn flour, mushroom and chestnut ragout, truffle oil, asparagus and parmesan - NIS 63), and roasted seaweed (greens and chickpea stew, lemon yogurt - NIS 114).

Is this a corrupt volcano about to erupt?

Is this a scary pastry monster?

Is this the mother of all desserts?

Maybe, but it's also Max Brenner's giant soufflé - weighing one kilogram, free of inhibitions and guilt - which is returning to the chocolate chain after a four-year absence.

This time it is a special edition of strawberry and chocolate soufflé, a puffy creation that consists of white chocolate, fresh strawberries, whipped cream, white chocolate ice cream and hot chocolate.

This sweet mutation stands 10 cm tall and 14 cm in diameter - two or three times as much as a regular souffle (and it weighs 10 times the original dessert).

If you decide to go for it, keep in mind that the soufflé is suitable for at least three hungry diners, but we would recommend arriving in four, because it would be a shame if it stays on the tray.

149 shekels.

Didn't find someone to share the souffle with?

No big deal, since Max Brenner also offers an updated winter menu based on the purity of strawberries, including dishes such as a strawberry sharing meal: milk chocolate souffle with strawberries, cheesecake and strawberry crepe, strawberry frutti waffle, strawberry and white chocolate mini shanti, chocolate fondue with strawberries for dipping, crumble , vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate (NIS 129, recommended for three diners).

The other new dishes on the new menu are enlarged versions of the dishes served at the sharing meal.

Tokyo corner Paris corner Ramat Gan.

The Japanese Kamakura restaurant (Ahliav 5, Ramat Gan, Hotel Indigo) is relaunching its Kaiski meal series - a tasting meal in the style of the Land of the Rising Sun, where chef Ilya Golman hosts prominent Israeli chefs for intriguing collaborations.

The next meal will take place on February 1, when chef Michael Katz (from the Attilio cooking school) will join Goleman for an eight-course Japanese-French meal.

Some of the dishes that will be served in the evening: shredded goose in a crepe (gastric sauce, citrus and kimchi, herb salad), and Parisian nori gnocchi (tandoori tomato stock, curry oil and green salad).

NIS 240, including a glass of wine and a special wine menu of Teperberg Winery.

Reservations must be made in advance by phone: 073-2777778.
