KUNAFA CAFE – Middle Eastern
Kunafa King made its name as a Tampa-area vendor before settling into this Temple Terrace cafe on North 56th Street, and the upgrade is the whole point: there is seating now, so warm kunafa gets eaten sitting down instead of standing in a queue. The pastry comes layered with cheese and pistachio under syrup, sometimes crowned with ice cream; baklava-style sweets, Lotus Biscoff cheesecake, cookies, shakes, coffee and matcha fill out the counter. Afternoons and late evenings are when it fills. A dessert shop with a real local following.
