Sabbath Saturday is a day of rest in Israel. Most shops are closed. Many restaurants are openned. Sabbath begins on Friday evening and ends on Saturday evening. As a country which has absorbed immigrants from nearly all parts of the world, Israel has a wide variety of culinary traditions.
Oriental restaurants abound, featuring Middle-Eastern cuisine.
Telecards can be bought at all post offices. International calls can be made from any public phone by using a long distance calling card, or through the International Operator.
