Late Supper at Tmol Shilshom


No, not the Last Supper, although we did see one of two buildings where, tradition has it, the Last Supper took place.

Rather, Mark and I took a late supper last night at a wonderful cafe and bookstore called Tmol Shilshom. The entrance is on a pedestrian mall called Saloman Street. You have to walk through this long stone hallway which opens onto a lovely court yard. On the court yard are a couple of pubs, and up the stairs on the roof is Tmol Shilshom.

It was a treat to have some salad and wine on the roof outdoors. I had a very nice Sephardic egg dish called shakshuka. Mark had a goat cheese and eggplant sandwich. We ran into this guy I met at the gay bar the other night; and also a couple of women who are here to represent Canada at World Pride.

I ran into Bill Wilson the other night during a random visit to Jerusalem Open House. Someone I know from years ago, we used to prepare food for the homeless at the MCC Church in the Castro.
