Chef Segev Moshe, once a ubiquitous figure in Israeli media and public life, has seen his restaurant empire, Segev Express, significantly contract, accumulating substantial debts. The chain, bearing his name, has reportedly shrunk, with financial obligations mounting.
Despite the financial challenges, one of Segev Express's branches, located in the Gold Mall in Rishon Lezion since 2012, appeared calm during a midday visit. The restaurant, which served as a pioneer for chef-driven eateries in shopping centers, had only four occupied tables during peak lunch hours. A review focused on the economic aspect, noting a diligent waitress and a bill of 110 shekels per person.
Notably, the restaurant owes the Gold Mall approximately 1.5 million shekels in unpaid rent. Negotiations are reportedly underway between the mall and the restaurant group to reach a settlement.
