"The baklava and buttery pistachio maamoul at this Lebanese daytime spot make us produce noises no one should hear. (A hybrid of "yoooooooo" and a cat purr.) The West Philly cafe is just as much a lunch destination as it is a bakery, so you can hang out with a friend or your laptop, drink coffee, and eat lahm bajeen with spicy lamb. Just prepare to leave with bags of baked goods: scanning the cases always results in syrupy knafeh and some coconut cake." - candis mclean, alison kessler
