Haifa
Shtroudl combines the sweet-toothed savvy of Germany and the Middle East, dishing up desserts in surrounds reminiscent of an eccentric aunt's summer house: ivy dangles, wind chimes rattle, and forks clash over cheesecake and apple strudel. Loosen your belt a notch if ordering the kunafeh, a formidable sweet cheese pastry lavished with syrup and a scoop of pistachio ice cream.
Savoury options include large breakfast omelettes, salads and focaccia.
