Yesterday I was looking for a place to enjoy a real cup of coffee, and I found this wonderful spot nearby on Google Maps. What I wanted most was to try Kunafa and I have to say, it was absolutely perfect!!!! The flavor was so balanced and delicious - a beautiful harmony of tastes that come together wonderfully. What I especially loved is that it wasn’t overly sweet, so you can truly savor the authentic flavor. It was simply incredible! I finished every last crumb!
I also tried a savory pastry - I can’t pronounce its name - but I chose the one with cheese and spinach. And wow, that was amazing too! The dough was thin and delicate, and the cheese had such a unique, rich taste. It’s not like the typical American cheese flavor you get on pizza; it reminded me a bit of suluguni, but I believe it’s made with a special cheese typical of this cuisine’s traditions.
I also want to point out how warm and welcoming this place is. I think I might have met the owners - it feels like a lovely family-run business. The inside is spotless, with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. I truly recommend visiting this place!
The only thing that wasn’t quite my personal taste was the coffee, it was a bit too bitter for me, but I think that’s exactly how it’s meant to be in Middle Eastern culture. So, while it wasn’t my favorite, I’m sure many people will love it.
And I have to give special thanks for one more thing. I really don’t like disposable cups, and I wanted to enjoy my dessert and coffee properly at the café. They kindly served my Knafeh and coffee in ceramic dishes - which I deeply appreciated. It made the whole experience so much more enjoyable and authentic.
At first, they served my coffee in a small cup, but then the gentleman noticed and offered to remake it in a larger one, saying that’s how it should be served. That small gesture really showed their customer care and attention to detail - I was very impressed.
So, I truly recommend coming here for great flavor, good vibes, and genuine hospitality. You’ll love it...
