Abu Assab Refreshments

The best place in the Old City for fresh orange, grapefruit, and carrot juice (often as sweet as cantaloupe juice); Abu Assab always purchases the best of the crop. Have yours at the juice bar, or follow the tiny staircase upstairs for table service. It’s located three-quarters of the way from Damascus Gate to the Cardo, on the right side.
