1. Hummus at Abu Hassan
Locals and tourists flock to this place for Israel's staple dish and claim there is no hummus like it. The original local is a hole-in-the-wall near the Yafo flea market but has since expanded to include an Abu Hassan restaurant and casual eatery across the street from each other.
2. Wall Art in Old Yafo
When admiring the galleries that line the streets of Old Yafo don't forget to look up at the handmade turquoise street signs and house numbers embedded in the limestone.
3. Vintage magnets, postcards, and prints at Farkash Gallery
Also located in Old Yafo, this shop has a large collection of reprinted advertisements and black-and-white photographs promoting Israel, its food, arts, airlines and so on. It's fun to browse the many stacks of prints, and leave with a few three shekel postcards as keepsakes or to send friends back home.
