Went to MyTown to drop off recycle items. Was exiting KFC when I saw this new stall so bought some desserts from them.
Left: an assortment of baklava.
Right: kunafa or knafeh
"Baklava is a layered pastry dessert made of filo pastry, filled with chopped nuts, and sweetened with syrup or honey" - from wiki online.
"Knafeh is a traditional Middle Eastern dessert made with spun pastry called kataifi, soaked in a sweet, sugar-based syrup called attar, and typically layered with cheese, or with other ingredients such as clotted cream, pistachio or nuts..." - from wiki online.
The menu:
1. Balah-al sham which is like mini churros. Similar to tulumba which is fried dough which is later soaked in syrup. Crunchy outside, soft and juicy inside.
2. Namorah - Lebanese semolina cake.
Made with semolina flour and yogurt. Topped with almonds and soaked in syrup.
3. Basbousah - syrup semolina cake.
4. Dates with Nuts.
5. Mixed Baklava which I bought.
MYR 14 for each type so total is MYR 28 nett.
I would buy and try a bit of every item. If too rich or too sweet for my taste, then it will be the last time.
ReplyDeleteYa, it is ok to try a bit of every item cos each item is quite small.
Deletei prefer baklava....I don't think i will like kunafa coz it has cheese.
ReplyDeleteI think they use mozzarella cheese because the cheese taste is just a bit.
DeleteI might not like kunafa but I used to love baklava. It is quite addictive.
ReplyDeleteThe kunafa only has a slight cheese taste because they use Mozart cheese I suspect.
DeleteI only know baklava among all those! You're much more learned. :)
ReplyDeleteI use Google. Lolx! 😆
