I’m a regular contributor on Google Maps, sharing my reviews and experiences primarily across the different restaurants and cuisines in the Greater Toronto Area.
My passionate interest is in finding the best Middle Eastern desert spots that are out there. With such a large and diverse population that are ethnically from that region, there is no shortage of places to try out in the Toronto/Mississauga area. And I’ve made it my mission to visit as many of these places as I can to find the very best desert options.
My favourites are baklawa and kunafa, with each having a wide variety of twists with different ingredients being used. You’ll also find that from as far east as Turkey to as far west as Iran, each country in-between has their own unique offerings of baklawa and kunafa. And these different varieties can be found throughout the Toronto area.
The best baklawa place I’ve had, is Patisserie Royale in Scarborough. The breadth of baklawa types and the distinct flavours are unique and unmatched. For kunafa, I would recommend The Sweets House in Mississauga.
