cheap, fresh, and healthy!. The baba ganoush and grape leaves are delicious, and the chicken kabobs are tender and flavorful. The service was great, too. We will definitely return.

Casual U. City cafe serves fresh and healthy Israeli food.. Casual U. City cafe serves fresh and healthy Israeli food on disposable tableware for just a few shekels. This sunny, bright and minimalistic counter-service café brings an Israeli oasis to a neighborhood that flows like the Jordan River with informal and inexpensive ethnic restaurants. Thanks to the two Israeli owners, the falafel, kabobs, shawarma, tahini, hummus and crisp chopped veggies that get cooked into sandwiches, platters and salads are as authentic as they come. And the dishes--all of which you can buy with a ten-spot and leave with change in your pocket--are cooked daily and emphasize simple, fresh and healthy goodness. Be sure to savor a warm, fluffy, imported wheat or white on the side while you eavesdrop on Penn and Drexel students discussing global affairs with their professors or Israeli post-grads arguing politics with their Arab dining companions.
