FYI there's a new place that just opened in Har Chotzvim called Rodriguez under Rav Machpud - Haven't been there myself - anyone been to review it??

Also Rimon Bistro in town is under Rav Machpud now (changed quite recently I think) and the dairy side has an awesome 50 shek buffet on Friday morning...

Rimon bistro has been machpud for almost a year now. And I think the buffet costs 59 or 62 shekel.
