"Founded in 1961 in Brooklyn, Mansoura Bakery traces its baking heritage back nearly two centuries to the family’s original bakeries in Egypt and Syria. Serving the Sephardic Jewish community in Midwood and beyond, this kosher bakery is famous for its traditional approach to Middle Eastern pastries. Must-tries include their tidy diamond-shaped baklava, their semolina basbousa cake, andas well as high-end confections and chocolates." - John Tsung, Eater Staff
