  City Center
  Downtown Jerusalem is the heart of the modern metropolis, with nightlife, dining and culture to rival any major city. The area is made up of several neighborhoods, including the colorful Mahane Yehuda Market, charming Nahalat Shiva, bustling Ben Yehuda and Yafo Streets. Each has its own unique personality and atmosphere that you won’t want to miss out on.
  
  South
  South Jerusalem is an up-and-coming area that has seen the development of numerous attractions in recent years, including the state-of-the-art Jerusalem Payis Arena, which hosts some of the biggest international musical acts and sporting events. It joins places like Emek Refaim Street, Malha Mall, the Biblical Zoo, Teddy Stadium, Gazelle Valley and Ramat Rachel tourism complex in making up an area that is particularly popular with families.
  
  West Jerusalem
  West Jerusalem includes some of Jerusalem’s most charming neighborhoods and interesting attractions. Head to the picturesque Ein Karem at the foot of the Jerusalem Hills for a day of nature, quaint shops and elegant dining with a view. And for an unbeatable cultural experience, check out the Museum District, home to the world-class Israel Museum, the Bible Lands Museum, Science Museum and much more.
  
  Old City
  The Old City of Jerusalem has been a center of culture, religion and history for thousands of years, from the time of the Judean kings and the Roman era through the times of the Islamic Empire to the modern State of Israel. Every brick and stone is teeming with history. No trip to the Middle East is complete without wandering through alleys of the bazaar, walking the ramparts and exploring the Old City’s rich history at the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Temple Mount (Al-Aqsa) or Tower of David Museum.
  
  NEAR OLD CITY
  Not far from the Old City, you can find some of Jerusalem’s most vibrant entertainment and shopping centers. Mamilla Mall is just a few steps from Jaffa Gate and counts as one of the most luxurious shopping centers in the city, replete with high-end shops, Mamilla Hotel’s Akasha Spa and a collection of restaurants with amazing views. And if you follow Hebron Road, you’ll find the First Station cultural complex and the Yes Planet movie theater and entertainment center.

Fishenchips is a popular stall in the Mahane Yehuda Market that specializes in a variety of takes on the UK-favorite dish of fish and chips. You can choose from several types of fish, including the classic cod, and rest assured that it’s about as fresh as you can get since it’s just a few feet away from the market’s fish stalls.

As an ex-pat Brit living in Israel , I was rather sceptical about trying this establishment - so I only ordered a trial portion of crunchy cod and chips for myself and family , and was pleasantly surprised . As you can see from the pictures , the cod came with a light batter , 3 sauces which to my amazement , included tartar sauce !!. Brits like their cod and chips in larger portions , but I'll have no hesitation in returning to fishen chips should I be in the neighbourhood again . The only real down side was the lack of seating arrangements , which would hint that this food really is meant to be eaten on the go The prices shown in one of my pictures , are correct as of 4th April 2021

“Good portions, very tasty and worth it.”

“Never disappoints”

We always make a point of coming to eat here when we visit. Food is fresh and hearty. My preference is for the regular fish in batter with chips, but I have never regretted ordering anything else on menu. Easier to find from the Agripas side of the market.
