Is there even a decent place to stay there?

Ruth Rimonim Hotel is a very nice place to stay in the artist colony of tzfat.

Hmm. Maybe?? I don't remember honestly. There didn't seem to be too many mehadrin meat options there (tzfat) so we stuck with what we knew was good (Monitin) and called it a day.

Anyone know what the hashgacha is at the David citadel? And has anyone spoken to a knowledgeable source about the kashrus(specifically on yom tov)?

The hashgocha is Rabbanut. During Yom Tov the standards are glatt including meats. I know so from the Mashgiach.

Tossup between Uzi and Miro in Jerusalem.

Miro makes a Delicious Shakshuka as well.
Buy a hot roll from Nechama across the street, and get yourself a Chummus Plate, and a Shakshuka. You'll thank me later.
