The Best Bakeries In Philadelphia - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Majdal started as a pop-up, selling everything from stunning cherry and labneh tarts to savory, buttery borekas at Her Place and Herman’s Coffee. But at its permanent home in Queen Village, you’ll find locals lining up at the tiny shop for the delightfully gooey Turkish eggs in a sourdough boat, or taking the shredded sumac chicken borek with an herby aioli home for lunch (there are just a few seats if you want to eat in). We love the flatbreads that have a tangy, slightly chewy sourdough base, as well as the green olive and cheese borek. But if you’re looking to wow with dessert, it’s all about the delicate layered tarts, which come in seasonal flavors like pumpkin, maple, and labneh." - candis mclean, alison kessler
