Trip Reports:
@Yehuda
When crossing to Taba:
Bring a pen.
If you have luggage israel might make you pay the 106 shekel exit fee. You can receive a refund on your way out if you save the stub and show your hilton reservation.
When leaving egypt you need an exit stamp and (currently) they give you those in the arrivals hall.
The hilton is usually cheap or 5,000 hilton points.
Everyone knows your jewish.
The casinos use USD and have exchange places in them.
You can also use visa/mc for a 2% fee.(purchase, not CA)

I got upgraded to a Junior Suite on the executive floor.
Executive Lounge is pretty dull, except for a nice porch where you can sit.
Overall it's a nice hotel except with the usual Israeli nasty service.

Most of the yeshivish world does not eat beit yosef

I wouldn't say most. There are plenty of people who eat it.   A lot don't. Plenty do.
