it's not misunderstanding at all. if you tell that the cakes in the front are fresh that means the lady on the wheel chair definitely lied to me ! i ask at the counter i need a fresh big size white vanilla cake. the lady on the wheel chair told me that since it is fresh, it needs to be kept in the freezer to condense. after put into box, she didn't give it to me. she told me, "after your dinner you can take it." but after the dinner when we came back to home my family was so disappointed. my kids wanna eat it but it was completely frozen. we've to leave it for the next day. and the taste was not good either ! We never like frozen cake.
we wanted Fresh cake, not the frozen cake. it's cheating ...... the lady on the wheel chair cheated us ! You must admit your mistakes !

I felt as if I just stepped in to one of those old hoods in the middle east. The Baklava was awesome, the Maamoul was super yummy and I liked the pistachio and dates stuffed ones. I love my Oozi (ball of rice meat and some veggies better heated in the oven and served with a bowl of Laban or plain youghurt) SO GOOD!!! At the end, the cashier staff were very friendly and welcoming.
Keep in mind, the staff all across all the counters were handing us foods to taste and try. If that is not the way you lure customers into buying more and increasing the take out expense, I don't know what is. Very nice strategy and very much appreciated the experience.
I came down from Toronto specifically to try this wonderful place. It was well worth...
