Note that such a place has to effectively hide any connection to Israel in part because of the climate of hatred created by these "lovers of Gaby's". Similarly Maoz (the best and most authentic falafal outside of Golders green/Hendon) in the heart of gay Soho and in other liberal cities dare have nothing (bar the name) to tell you its founders are Israeli - despite the spin referred to here http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3437932,00.html that it was purely a marketing decision.

Went to the Jewish Museum in the Marais area, really good, highly recommend a visit. By the way if you have time, clock the film/video called Dolphin Boy, another heartwarming tale to relate to all those who j'accuse Israel of being apartheid!!

The owner at the door was nice too - it was so cold outside that when I walked in my glasses steamed up; he promptly handed me a napkin with which to wipe them. It's the little things.

If Israel was forced to incorporate the latter 1.41m into the Israeli political realm then that would leave 5.25m Israel Jews and 2.61m Palestinians.
