Levinsky Market is one of my favorite hidden-gems in Tel Aviv. Its not the kind of market with endless fruit and vegetable stalls, instead its a mix of spice shops, small old delis, bakeries, and places to grab something quick to eat. When you walk through, you get hit with the smells of roasted coffee, spices, dried fruits, and sometimes fresh burekas coming out of the oven.

I like coming in the morning when shopkeepers are opening up and locals are buying their usual things, it feels authentic and less crowded. Around lunchtime it becomes livelier, with people stopping for a snack, coffee, or a plate of food. The mix of old family run shops and newer trendy spots makes it interesting, like seeing different layers of the city together.

One of the best places to visit in Tel Aviv, many small shops, bakeries, coffee, food, a unique vibrant market that spread on a few streets, very popular with the locals. One smaller street with shops that predominantly sells nuts and dry fruits, spices and olives. In the side streets there are shops with canned and packed goods. I’ve been shopping here for years. There’s lots of cool spice shops. Most of them have similar selection, but it’s just nice to walk around the neighborhood. The "shuk" is a collection of streets with open fronts stores mostly offering spices, nuts, restaurants, sweets etc. There are too many to list in a single review and I hope that the photos will provide a flavourful of the place. It’s a chef and foodie’s paradise and one of the reasons we wanted to spend time in Tel Aviv. Stroll down the street and check it all out - outstanding area...
