AZIA 19 — the kosher Japanese izakaya on Aza Street in Jerusalem’s Rehavia neighbourhood — is hosting a one-night Japanese-Mexican crossover on Wednesday, 20 May 2026.
The teaser poster shows kushiyaki-style skewers tucked into tacos with pickled red onion, herbs and a wedge of lime. The chef’s note on Instagram describes it simply: “food you eat with your hands, casual atmosphere.”
What to expect#
- Format: one-night pop-up menu alongside (or in place of) the regular izakaya offering
- Style: handheld plates — think yakitori-meets-taco rather than a sit-down tasting
- Kashrut: AZIA 19 is fully kosher, so the fusion stays within its usual standards
- Atmosphere: relaxed izakaya bar, not a ticketed event
