Jerusalem is the theme of this restaurant and its mixed Arab-Jewish staff serve dishes that reflect the two cultures. Award-winning chef Moshe Basson picks herbs and mushrooms from the hills surrounding Jerusalem and has a basket of herbs on display to show customers the plants mentioned in the Bible. He also runs seminars in English and Hebrew about cooking with local herbs. The menu draws on food mentioned in the Bible, such as figs (one of the seven species), and food linked to Jerusalem's history such as khubeiza, a wild wheat eaten during the siege of 1948.
