Hi! I’m Leron but you can call me Hugo

I’m from Tel Aviv. It’s a 24/7 city with lots of action happening all day and night, bars and restaurant are open till late or around the clock..

I Cook the flavours of Tel Aviv. From the most simple soup joint in the middle of the Carmel-Market and to the most delicious mouthwatering street food, and continue with some fancy Ceviche bars and sweet treats, I want you to try it all.

My menus are costume made for you and designed with great passion to make your experience memorable.

For me, cooking is...

Cooking is my way to express creative energy.. Taking beautiful products and simply displaying in their very best version is like telling a story.

I learned to cook at...

A cooking secret...

Attention to detail. Balance is key to every good dish. Meal. Or dessert.
