Calling all gluten free guys and gals: Brace your flour-fearing selves! Springtime in Israel is GF heaven. Buds are blooming in the Galilee. Tel Aviv's sun feels oh-so-sweet. AND, every market shelf, counter, and crate is abundant with chametz alternatives. Gluten free pretzels, cookies, , crackers, bread, cereal...you name it. Your makolet's (Hebrew for 'grocery store') got it.
Although Tel Aviv’s Shuk Levinsky, or Levinsky Market, spans a modest six blocks, the food-filled street is the ultimate intro to authentic Israel.

If you’re too shy to ask for a small-spoon-sample at your local ice cream shop, Levinsky will turn your timid world upside down.
