Are you talking food or bedding or toiletries or everything?
As was said on other threads, I wouldnt bring things that need refrigeration as you never know if your case will get lost or not and food being left in a suitcase that was lost or something, would not be good at all.

Not bedding
But what would you need to stay in an apartment that is way cheaper to take along?

Disposable dishes if you use them, a fairly recent tax has made them super expensive here.
The tax has not effected disposable tin pans but all paper and plastic goods.
I know when I’m on vacation I prefer to use paper and plastic ware.

I'm here now, came from USA for Yom tov to an apt. It all depends on what the rentor is leaving out for you...mine left her pots pans basic baking cooking appliances linen and towels and enough shampoo soaps etc to start off.

Are you cooking? Hosting?

They have almost everything here it's just will be different than what you're used to not necessarily more expensive. Not even the paper goods!

Which hood are you staying in? Some groceries here accept delivery and they can have it by your door by time you arrive.

We are staying in Rechavia\ Sharei Chesed? Where did you get your groceries delivered from? What did they do with the dairy products?
