Meals Selected from the Menu or Selected by the Chef at Elmarsa

Elmarsa is owned by  Marwan Suwaed and by  Chef Alaa Musa, who began his career when he was just 15 as a dishwasher at Uri-Buri,  went on  to the Royal Beach Hotel in Eilat, Carmela Ba’Nahalah, and the Michelin-starrred Swedish restaurants, @F12, La Rose and Operakallaren.

Chef Musa  gives his own fresh  interpretation to authentic Galilee Arab cuisine, adding  a new twist and  worldly aroma to the time-honored traditional cuisine. The menu offers fish, seafood and meat, as well as authentic elements from his mother’s kitchen, using modern cooking techniques to give them an innovative, contemporary touch. The fish and seafood are fresh from the day’s catch – from the fishermen’s net straight to the table. The ingredients, produce and herbs come fresh from the local market. The tasting meal allows you to sample  the creativity of Chef Alaa Musa to the full. First of all he checks your preferences or any food sensitivities you may have, and if you give him free rein he begins delivering  hors d’oeuvres to the centre of your table (according to the number of diners + another dish or two) for  shared tasting.   This is followed by  the seafood and fish dishes, and then  the meat.  Finally, of course, there’s dessert, with our flagship knaffeh being highly recommended. If a dish is less to the taste of the diners, it can be returned to the kitchen and replaced with another. The price of the meal is not pre-set, as it’s based on the number of dishes served and their price.
