With spoiler tags it's best to indicate what they relate to, if just this episode I'll open, if for later things or other seasons I won't.
The end was obviously harking back to an earlier US season.

Rob and Amber - first all stars I think it was, I didn't like it then either. A good team eliminated just by bad luck.
The edit teased me with the hope that the twins would be eliminated. It seems the norm for teams to just take time out from tasks at times, and they seem to get away with it.
I think for most it's good to have the double suspense of a race to the mat and the confirmation of it being a non-elimination. The close race is good, but unless you want to know what happens in advance you don't get anything from knowing that's all the suspense you'll get.
There was less picking up all the food and stuffing it in their mouths and more use of knives and forks. Funny seeing the last team just enjoying the food they could in the 15 minute delay.
They seem to use Israeli music as a means of highlighting this as Amazing Race
Israel, but the music showcased hasn't been that good imo.
I was wondering what the conversation between Tali and Gili and Nisim and Orel at the food was about. I know they have had some problems before, Tali saying she wouldn't be Nisim's mother when they were held up by a yield.
