As an amateur baker and a lover of breads and pastries, I have a fond attraction to bakeries. The smell of baking captivates my nose and I\u2019m always willing to devote myself to the aroma of a freshly baked loaf of bread. I used to visit bakeries like Chaba and Calderon, but in recent years bakeries that bake whole wheat and rye bread have sprung up and the memories of the fine taste stay with me the entire week.

The breads baked here are wheat, spelt and rye breads and those who prefer a baguette or white bread can find it here. Russell Zaks, a former photographer who worked for the Red Cross, learnt the secrets of white flour from an old Italian baker in South Africa and the secrets of rye in Stockholm. Working beside him is Nisan, also a baker and a religious Jew born in Sweden renowned for its expertise in bakery. \u201cThe market atmosphere that brought me here also brings a variety atmosphere that brought me here also brings a variety of customers\u201d says Russell Zaks.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.danhotels.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/5728-double.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-1\" role=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-453 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.danhotels.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/5728-double.jpg\" alt=\"Dining in the Center of Jerusalem\" width=\"760\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Machneyudah \u2013 in a single word<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Alongside the colorful stalls overflowing with fruit and veg, butchers and spice stalls, coffee shops and restaurants have sprung up throughout the market, allowing buyers and casual visitors to spend time and enjoy the market atmosphere.

The Aroma chain of coffee houses has also opened a branch here. The first place to open in the new spirit of the market 12 years ago was a Parisian style caf\u00e9 named \u201cMizrachi\u201d, owned by two brothers \u2013 Shlomo and Moshe . Shlomo owns a veg shop in the market and inside hangs a picture of his father Eliyahu, who also owned a shop in the market and his children have carried on the tradition He started off with a stall. Moshe owns probably the noisiest shop in the market that specializes in green herbs: parsley, coriander, celery, mint and cress, and the strong smell portrays the freshness. Moshe says that he has been in the market his whole life. \u201cAs children we unloaded watermelons for just a few pennies, to earn more we collected beer and juice bottle tops and sold them back to the manufacturer in Givat Shaul.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.danhotels.com\/JerusalemHotels\/DanPanoramaJerusalemHotel\/\">For Reservations at Dan Panorama\u00a0Jerusalem Hotel<\/a> &gt;&gt;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Yossi Mizrahi, owner of a nut shop is also a member of this extensive family and the son of \u201cTzachko\u201d &#8211; brother of Shlomo and Moshe.

The market is also called Chaim Valero Market, after one of the most wealthy property owners in Jerusalem. As time went by, the market grew and Jewish merchants began to sell their wares in makeshift stalls and harsh conditions. The first shop belonged to the Etz Chaim Yeshiva that built shops to support the big and famous Yeshiva located in the old city. The shops expanded next to Jaffa Street and later additional shops that belonged to the Yeshiva also opened.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Two Rooms above a Veg Shop<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>During the British Mandate period, in the twenties, some of the traders incorporated &#8211; mostly members of the Persian community and among them the Cohen and Banai families \u2013 who established four rows of shops that are today, located on the nearby Ha\u2019agas and Ha\u2019tapuach streets. The Banai family resided at Ha\u2019Agas 1 and Meir Banai, who married his cousin when she was 15, lived with her family on Nissim Bachar St. A few years later the young couple moved to a spacious two bedroom flat, over the family\u2019s vegetable store. They moved there with their six children, Shmuel, Yaacov, Aliza, Avraham, Yitzhak and Yosef. Whilst living there his wife gave birth to Chaim and Gabriel (Gavr) Today the street is called Eliyahu Yaakov Banai, in the name of the grandfather who was a revered storyteller, actor and accomplished musician. Yossi and Gavri Banai, who grew up under the influence of their grandfather have undoubtedly inherited many of his talents. <\/em><br \/>\n<em>Today the house number has changed and is now number 11, there you can find a vegetarian restaurant called Ha\u2019agas 1. Meir Eliyahu Bana\u2019 s signature can still be seen on the iron grille at the front of the restaurant (later the signature changed and the letter \u201cI\u201d was added to the family surname). In 1930, 81 merchants got together and decided to buy land from Valero and they borrowed money from the Savings and Loans bank. This purchase On Ha\u2019Shaked St. there is a sign that reads: Savings and formed the character of the market and made it what it is today.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.danhotels.com\/JerusalemHotels\/KingDavidJerusalemHotel\/\">For Reservations at The King David \u00a0Jerusalem Hotel<\/a>\u00a0&gt;&gt;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Loan Market was built by the city community for the Jews of Jerusalem, 1931.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>A Market of Beauty and Character Mahane Yehuda market consists of two main streets and small side streets between them.
