Yaffa Knafeh – Mediterranean
A knafeh counter in the thick of the Jaffa flea market on Olei Zion Street, working from family recipes: shredded pastry, soft cheese, sweet syrup, built and baked on site rather than trucked in. Baklava and other Levantine sweets fill the rest of the case, with tea, coffee and sahlab to drink. The move regulars press on visitors is knafeh under ice cream, half pistachio and half vanilla, eaten standing up. It has since spread to more than one address in the city. Sweet, hot, and worth the sugar.
