In a city
chock-full of cute cafes in Tel Aviv, how do you go about finding your coffee-and-computer
go-to spot?
Enter
Shine, the quaint Tel Aviv cafe-art gallery on Frishman and Shlomo Hamelech. In addition to scrumptious eats for
anytime of day (yes, they have a full menu of breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner
items), Shine boasts a rotating roster of local art talent.
Every month Shine showcases
a different artist, offering a slice of funky culture. This month's artist is Guy Pitchon (art
elias PTCH), a street artist whose trademark edginess is giving Shine a
counterculture cool vibe.
Works at
Shine are for sale - perfect if you have been searching for some Tel Aviv
talent to hang on your wall.
Join the
chic crowd of locals sipping espresso outsides and enjoy the Tel Aviv sunshine
which has finally arrived, or bring your laptop inside for some
productivity. Either way your
senses are in for a treat, as Shine also plays some delightful cover bands.

tofu, sesame seeds, roasted peas and chickpeas, and pine nuts, with mustard
vinaigrette. Tall espresso.]
If shine
whets your visual appetite for more arting, head North to Gordon Street which
runs parallel to Frishman and is home to the city's best galleries.
