Bites of JLM 🍴

If you’ve been missing truly American style cafe food - think mozzarella sticks with a dreamy cheese pull, or flavored coffees that have nothin’ on Starbucks - then Chalav U’Dvash (Mehadrin) is for you! Located in French Hill (perfect for Hebrew U Har HaTzofim students!), it’s a delicious spot that’s sure to hit your craving on the head.
Rolly (Rabbanut) delivers generously filled, flavorful tortillas and sandwiches that make for a satisfying meal to cap off your shop in Hadar Mall! The menu leans into hearty comfort food with juicy chicken, tender beef cuts, and classic accompaniments like seasoned fries and crispy onion rings - perfect for lunch or dinner.
