Puzzle Israel’s mission to taste, explore, experience, and discover Israel defines the creative life work of Israeli chefs and entrepreneurs, Guy Marom and Nir Margalith. The eighth and final guests of this season’s Israel Today series, this dynamic pair will share their passion for Middle Eastern cuisine at Israel Fest, as well as offer a fun, hands-on cooking adventure a few nights later.
Marom and Margalith combined their love of cooking, nature, and travel and formed their travel company, Puzzle Israel Tour Company, which also includes their catering enterprise.
Upon arrival in Tidewater, Marom and Margalith will cook through the night to prepare three authentic Israeli main dishes and three side dishes that will be offered alongside the food of local synagogues and temples at Israel Fest.
At their hands-on cooking demonstration, Marom and Margalith will represent their unique catering company, Puzzle Israel, sharing cooking skills and entertaining stories that will charm any food lover. The creative entrepreneurs have become more than professional chefs in their fervent desire to share the “Real Israel”—they have become ambassadors of their homeland.
