The Last Refuge



Although I am not positive, I suppose this restaurant gets its name because of its location. It is in Eilat, Israel, a colorful town located on the northern edge of the Red Sea. Travel just about one mile south and you will encounter the heavily fortified and monitored border crossing that leads from Israel into Egypt's formidable and potentially dangerous Sinai Peninsula. 

As you can tell from the photos, the food at the Last Refuge is quite interesting. In Hebrew, this restaurant is called Hamiflat Ha'acharon and it is renowned among locals for its seafood. My mom ordered the fish with the delightful display of teeth. What a surprise it was to see that arrive at the table!
