FYI : in addition to bank Leumi closing foreign accounts with less than a certain amount (I was told at bank that they are just closing all foreign accounts but DROPR), they also closed all cashiers to deposit cash in branches beside for branches in city center and shaarei ha'ir.

What's wrong with depositing ATM? Why would you wait on line either way?

Problem with doing it at ATM is depositing in someone else's account. Can only deposit check. I don't like putting money in my israeli account. I avoid it as much as possible.

really don't remember off hand but I think about 175-200. I remember going and paying less than the other places like papagayos and enjoying alot. couldn't move by time I was done...but they are a little shady with the service. you need to ask for everything -they will try to not give dishes if you don't ask (like steaks, lambchops, and doubles, triples ) if you ask they will bring it right out, but if you don't, they just smile that they made a buck off you.

Papagios does the same thing that after the first round that they bring out to you you have to start asking and waiting for whatever you want to continue eating.

hey I've always been happy with them...and I'm sure it's all about who you get as a waiter. I've gotten awesome service there (free shots on the house) and other times when they didn't even bring out chichen fingers or wings in the first round...but when we asked they said yes of course and brought whatever we wanted...just saying don't be ignorantly taken advantage of.

Don't get sucked in by the cheaper options that they offer more frequently.

I hate them. It's not a book store it's a grocery store.

Enjoy them while they last before you need to start paying.

What's going there? The government is giving out free bags before implanting the extra charge on plastic ones?

Referring to the bags with ads? Those aren't from the government.

Oh, never mind. Was just wondering what was going on. Sounded like they were giving out those thick canvas book bags for free.
