Coca-Cola Diner Pop-Up in Tel Aviv Features Israeli Chefs' American Cuisine

Coca-Cola is launching a large-scale pop-up diner in Tel Aviv's Port area from September 29 to October 2, featuring American cuisine reimagined by prominent Israeli chefs. The event, held at "Hangar 11," aims to recreate the atmosphere of a classic American diner with music and food.

Participating chefs include Haim Cohen, Moshik Roth, Guy Gamzu, Yarden Shai, and pastry chef Moran Gil. Each chef has put their unique spin on American staples. Haim Cohen will offer "Dixie"-style wings, Caesar salad, and beef with peppers and onions served in ciabatta. Moshik Roth is presenting a "Sloppy Joe" burger and Dutch fries with satay sauce. Guy Gamzu's menu includes a teriyaki chicken sandwich and chili con carne. Yarden Shai is serving a pretzel hot dog and chicken tacos. Moran Gil's dessert is a lemon tart with Lotus and Italian meringue.

This marks the second year for the Coca-Cola Diner in Tel Aviv, following a successful event last year. The four-day diner is the culmination of Coca-Cola Diner Month, during which over 200 establishments nationwide offered special American-diner-themed dishes. This year's event emphasizes sustainability, with food served in biodegradable, compostable packaging provided by Save It. Collection bins for beverage containers will be available, with proceeds from deposits donated to the "Leket" organization. Vegan and gluten-free options are also available for select dishes.

Admission is restricted to individuals aged 16 and over. All food and beverages will be kosher, supervised by the Chief Rabbinate of Rishon LeZion. A separate, dedicated station will prepare and serve dairy desserts. Tickets cost 57 shekels and include a choice of a dish and a Coca-Cola or Coca-Cola Zero. Ticket sales began on September 15 via a dedicated Coca-Cola mini-site and Eventer. Additional items are sold separately. A Sukkah will be erected for visitors in observance of the Sukkot holiday. Organizers are monitoring the current situation in Israel and reserve the right to make program changes, which will be announced officially.
