Dont know the names, there are not that many, so just look. Milky is on the left , meaty (shwarma type) on the right
When did you see these restaurants?
There was nothing mehadrin in TLV when I was there in 08/07, 08/09, or 05/10.

That is ridiculous. I have been to tel aviv, and there are plenty of kosher restaraunts. It is a huge city, and almost all jewish, with a large frum population. I don't know why you trust that story over me.

The dan lounge has quite a bit of mehadrin stuff. Go in to the kitchen and ask them to show you the containers / boxes. I have been in the dan lounge and also the king david and I think the mehadrin availability was better in the dan lounge. In the dan lounge this past january they had vegies and lettuce that was either eida or landau. I dontt hink they had that in king david. all the bread and mezonos was either landau or eida

Yes, TLV the airport.
I don't think anyone would say we had a DO yesterday in JFK?

Interesting, was it always mehadrin?

I don't think I'll ever understand Israeli hashgochas.

Beis yosef Pizza Hut is good, before security.

Afterwards there's a sandwhich place with a sketchy hechsher and even worse food.

Ime the selection of food in the Dan lounge is atrocious but what bothered me more is the drink selection or the lack of it

All the food in the DAN lounges are presently mehadrin- salads + dips + crackers + soup +cake + cookies. Either Badataz Eida Charedis or Harav Landau or Efrati.
The staff will gladly show you the packages in the little kitchen behind.
