A sourdough bakery and village café in Tekoa's shopping centre, under trees looking out over the Judean Desert
Lehemoshe sits in the centre of Tekoa, on the edge of the desert, in a corner shaded by trees that looks out over the Judean Desert. Its owner, Moshe, bakes sourdough breads, and the village café serves breakfasts, pastas and salads, chef's sandwiches, children's dishes and pizzas from an Italian taboon oven, with special discounts for soldiers. It also runs a coffee cart at the first roundabout at the entrance to Nokdim, with sandwiches, pastries, focaccia, pizzas, cookies, challahs and sourdough bread. It is on the Gush Etzion religious council's kosher list.
