Mitahat la Etz - Ben Yuhuda 200

On my way to work, one corner-cafe always cought my eye: green, small, and cute.

LOCATION 7
On the noisy Ben-Yehuda street, 'Mitahat la Etz' (=under the tree) makes a green quiet street corner. The first 'Mitahat la Etz' is under a tree on Rotschild.

MENU 7
Cheap and gooood sandwiches. We just had to order the recommanded Roastbeef sandwich. Indeed it was very good, and in a good price in Tel Aviv standards - 13 shekels for each tasty half. With the sandwich we got 3 pickles and 2 olives. Salads look amazing, with the sandwich toppings!! The menu is limited, but assures the good stuff is good. The Pastry doesn't look very attractive. We got water in a plastic cup..

SIT 5
mmmmmmm not very comfortable, but nice. You can sit on the bar - but you won't see anything. You can sit on Ben Yehuda street - but you'll get it in your face. We chose to sit in the corner area - on the quiet street. Square wooden tables are small, and unstable - they actually dance! They're small enough to make one person uncomfortable.. The chairs cause discomfort, too. It limits your stay to sereval minutes. It's very hot - only 1 fan cools 6 tables. On the other hand, the tree and the plants make the area green and pleasant. The area in which we sat, is hidden from the traffic.

SERVICE 7
Self service, but with a great smile!! We didn't even sit, and were asked what is out order. Your order is written on a funny little note - that describes what you want in your sandwich. The sandwich was made fast and delicious.

VISITORS 4
Two women screeched sweedish and bothered eveyone. One guy stole our fan. We hate him. Frequently seen are delivery people that take a break with their motorcycle.

THE COFFEE 2
Unfortunately, it tasted like turkish coffee with milk.. It was strong, but not tasty.. The cup was nice - decorated with their logo.

OVERALL 5.3
If you want a majorly good sandwich, and a nice short sit - you better choose Mitahat la Etz. Good prices for good sandwiches.
