Looking for something really special to do in Israel? Get a taste of what life is like for the blind and deaf with a visit to Na Laga’at.
The Nalaga’at Deaf-blind Acting Ensemble was founded in order to integrate deaf-blind people into the community and produces shows which aim to change perceptions and views. Shows are performed on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
Na Laga’at is home to two unusual restaurants. Cafe Kapish serves kosher dairy cuisine, with a challenge. The waiters are deaf and hearing-impaired and communicate with the diners through sign language. For a more intense experience, dine at Blackout Restaurant, where food is served in total darkness by blind waiters. Experience the taste of food without the distraction of sight.
Na Laga’at is located at the Jaffa Port and can be reached by car via the Ayalon Highway or by bus #10. More information is available at the Na Laga’at website.
