It is very easy to find Kosher Food in Israel.
Kosher restaurants require that Milk and Meat are not cooked together. So a meat restaurant will have no milk and vice versa
There are also a plethora of Vegan restaurants especially in Tel Aviv.
If you have allergies; we suggest that you write down your allergies and google translate into Hebrew/ Arabic so you can show them to restaurants/cafes. We are also happy to prepare this for you.
