A woman between 80 and 95 years old generally needs about 1.0 to 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily (roughly 0.45 to 0.68 grams per pound).
Daily Protein Needs
By Weight: Multiply your weight in kilograms by 1.2 (for example, a 130-pound/59 kg woman needs about 70 grams of protein per day). That turns into 2.47 oz.
Weight Watchers used to allow 6 oz meat per meal for women, 8 oz for men.
Serve 4 ounces of flounder (our Zesty Lemon-Herb recipe is under 200 calories per serving). Eat with 1 cup cooked couscous and 1 cup steamed broccoli. Enjoy with a single-serve ice cream for dessert and you can go to bed happy.
General Range: Most older women in this age group need between 60 and 90 grams of total protein daily, depending on their weight, muscle health, and activity level. Higher amounts (up to 1.5 g/kg) may be recommended if dealing with frailty, recovery from illness, or significant muscle loss.
Per-Meal Breakdown
Per Meal: Aim for 25 to 35 grams of protein at each main meal. 35 x
Per Snack: Include 10 to 15 grams of protein if adding snacks.
Spreading protein evenly across meals helps the body process it better and prevents age-related muscle loss.
To change grams to ounces, as our steaks are weighed by ounces, not grams.
Shalom Y'all (sometimes stylized as Shalom Y'all!)[1] is a restaurant serving Israeli,[2]Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern cuisine in Portland, Oregon, United States.[3] There were two locations, before one restaurant rebranded as Lil' Shalom. Lil' Shalom closed permanently in 2025.
Description
Shalom Y'all is a restaurant in southeast Portland's Buckman neighborhood. Portland Monthly has described the restaurant as an "Israeli street food kitchen". The menu has included cucumber-kohlrabi salads, hummus plates with maitake mushrooms or braised lamb, oregano-perfumed lambchops, muhamara, a blackberry Manischewitz-spiked spritzer, and flatbread with a roasted pepper spread and pomegranate molasses.[3] Both Shalom Y'all and its spin-off Lil' Shalom have served corn ribs.[4]
History
The original restaurant was established in May 2016,[5] initially operating in the Pine Street Market. The business relocated to 1128 Southwest Alder Street in 2017.[6][7]
Plans for a second location in southeast Portland were announced in November 2017.[8] The outpost opened in February 2018.[9]
The business is operated by Sesame Collective. Laura Amans, Jamal Hassan, Kasey Mills are co-owners.[10]
The restaurant's phone system was hacked in 2019.[11][12] In January 2021, both locations were vandalized with anti-Israel graffiti.[13][14] Michael Russell of The Oregonian wrote in 2021:
Shalom Y'all was first opened by former Portland chef John Gorham and his business partner Ron Avni, whose family owns the Israeli dude ranch Vered Hagalil, where "Shalom, Y'all" hangs above the reception desk. The Toro Bravo restaurant group was dissolved in July after Gorham, incensed over vandals spray painted the group's catering vans, directed a violent Facebook outburst toward a trans woman of color. Operating as the new Sesame Collective, longtime Toro Bravo employees Mills, Hassan and Amans took over both Shalom Y'all locations as well as sister restaurants Mediterranean Exploration Company, the then under-development Yalla as well as two outposts of burger spot Bless Your Heart. At the time, the new group removed its "Israeli street food" descriptor, while keeping its menu the same.[10]
Exterior of Lil' Shalom, 2022
In mid 2021, the Alder Street location closed and rebranded as Lil' Shalom.[15] The Shalom Y'all on Southeast Taylor Street continued to operate as usual.[16][17]
Lil' Shalom
The spin-off restaurant Lil' Shalom was also operated by Sesame Collective.[18] It served Mediterranean cuisine.[19] Co-owner Mills was the executive chef.[20] Caleb Rose was a sous-chef.[21][22] The restaurant closed permanently on April 30, 2025.[23]
Reception
Shalom Y'all ranked second in the Best Mediterranean Restaurant category of Willamette Week's annual 'Best of Portland' readers' poll in 2022,[24] 2024,[25] and 2025.[26]
My son and daughter in law went through great lengths to find an Israeli food restaurant for my 92nd Birthday. It is called "Shalom Y'All. Steve tells me it's a short distance from downtown Portland over the Hawthorne Bridge, and the directions mention being in the Buckman School district where I had taught many years ago from 1958-1962. This is because I have dual citizenship with Israel having lived there from 1980 to the tail end of 1985 while teaching English as a 2nd Language. Now I write, defending Israel in my blogging along with our ancient history. What I was familiar with was falafels sold on the street corner with competition between the King of Falafels and the Queen of Falafels and strawberries sold by the liter, a bag 2.2 lbs full of ripe strawberries, huge ones.
