This place makes my favorite Ma’amoul (date cookies). They also have Baklava, Knafeh and all kinds of middle eastern sweets. The owner is really friendly and gives us free samples all the time. It’s the best when they are still warm from the oven. I would definitely recommend you try this place!

This is a Middle Eastern desert shop inside the Fresh Choice Market as part of its food court. As implied by their name their specialty is Knafeh which is a pastry made out of shredded phyllo dough (Kataifi) and cheese. It comes in two varieties one which has a orange flaky top layer and the other which has a darker smoother layer (My preference is for the orange flaky one). The Knafeh is enjoyed hot hence it is laid out on a large heated circular deep dish from which slices are cut when requested. Finally you have a choice of adding syrup (rose scented sweeten liquid) on top which i generally do. Cost wise its $9.99 per lb which fills a decent size container.

They also carry assorted Baklava and filled cookies but I haven’t tried any till now.

As this is a middle eastern market the server generally starts speaking to me in Arabic and it turns into a funny conversation with me simply pointing to what i want and grunting in response 🙂

Overall a nice place to get your Knafeh fix.
