Why did you cover?
First, so you have something to ask.
Second, so that the younger ones might learn a little about the mythical cafe / tavern of little Tel Aviv. Pen and culture people, whose names now hang on both streets and banknotes, sat there and sipped whole bottles of Cognac Medicinal.
And third, because if there's anything missing in the current chaotic mass media world, it's a bit of the common sense - and graceful - bardak of yesteryear. Kassit himself began to decline in his greatness as early as the 1970s and 1980s (the last incarnation of the cafe closed 69 years after its establishment, in 2004), and there is currently no cafe where Alterman, Yitzhak Sadeh and Shlonsky sit. And not just because there is no more Alterman, Yitzhak Sadeh and Shlonsky.
Haim Guri once described the great advantage of Kassit Coffee in mixing the people from various fields of occupation and creation that took place in it. Today, it seems, this idea has been replaced with the rise of the digital profession "programmer", where instead of involving people, the desire is that everyone who deals with the media will have a variety of skills and areas that they master.
So we do not want to go back 90 years, but Kassit was established for the following reasons:
There is no place where the bronze can sit and sharpen the head
Because instead of neon in the towers need air and espresso and pistachio cake.
Because we kind of miss Passon.
Because even millennials need to remember that writing is not writing.
That a portrait is not a selfie.
That compliment is not just a Like.
And that Google is not an investigation.
Today, by the way, there is a place where Cafe Kassit is a cocktail house with a variety of fine drinks and without anything reminiscent of the cognac medicinal. Still, we made progress.
