Is Jaffa the shit? Legit question, and the answer is yes, quite so. The city that was united with its big sister Tel Aviv offers so much that a visit to TLV wouldn't be complete without touring it as well.
Main Bazar is a bar that manages to be local even though it's right in the center of the Jaffa scene. Maybe it's the alley it's located on, which offers exhibitions of the best of the local spray painters community, maybe it's the big-hearted waiters, who knows?
Anyhow, it's a great place to add to a slow Jaffa night. Order some drinks and the tasting plate, look at the graffiti, and enjoy the scene.
