'Manch Pizza' a great find...

For people who don't keep 'kosher' coming over to Israel could be a little difficult when trying to find the foods you're used to eating back home.  Even though I'm Jewish, I have never really kept 'kosher'... not because I don't believe in the tradition, it's just the fact that I have always liked cheese in my steak burritos, and pepperoni on my pizza.  It was real difficult to find places over here that were not 'kosher', as most of the restaurants (especially the mom & pop type places) do not serve meat and cheese.  A lot of the coffee shops will not serve meat period, end of story.  You can go in and get pasta, but not with bolognese sauce, or with chicken.  After settling for a pizza spot, seriously no more than a three minute walk from my house, that made a mean cheese pizza with corn on top (don't knock it 'til you try it, it is actually pretty damn good), my teammate Tal, took me to this place by his house called, 'Manch Pizza'.  'Manch' is a non-kosher pizza place, about ten minutes from my house, that I probably still wouldn't know about if it wasn't for my boy Tal.  We went there to eat one day after practice one day, and while it isn't on the same level as my favorite places from Phoenix and the Bay, it is a cheap place that serves big pizza with lots and lots of pepperoni.  Now my teammate Ben and I frequent that restaurant at least once a week (ok, more like twice a week).  Starting my third month on Israeli soil Monday, I have found a couple different Italian places that are like the one's back home, and that makes the transition much, much easier.  Now... if I could only find a restaurant over here like Chipotle...
