"I wished we could have lingered at Aleppo Sweets — such a gorgeous little cafe founded by baker Youssef Akhtarini — but the few pieces of baklava we grabbed to go were transformative: one bite and I wanted to get back there ASAP and eat so much more. The shop ships its baklava (try the variety tray for a sampling of four types), and I encourage you to order some right away." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
