In the heart of the primeval landscapes of the Judean Desert, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, lies Chef Yoel Ben-Shabbat’s smokehouse. More than just a restaurant, the smokehouse brings an authentic rural tradition to life, shaped by a chef with over 35 years of experience in kitchens around the world.
We invite you to a complete experience that engages all the senses: a restaurant with a magical desert atmosphere, a food shop offering delicacies you can take home, a private and corporate events venue, and catering services that bring our flavors and our story directly to you.
