Known for banana pudding, gelato, waffles, and baklava
"On sunny afternoons, people spill out of Benny's onto Broadway Market with a scoop of gelato. But you should look past the tempting ice cream display, and order the soğuk baklava—drenched in a milk-based syrup, rather than a more traditional sugar and honey one—from the small takeaway dessert spot instead. We return, rain or shine, for the layers of filo with chopped walnuts and, in the best way possible, the almost soggy levels of moistness." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager, sinead cranna
"On a sunny day, people spill out of Bennys onto Broadway Market with a scoop of gelato or soft serve drizzled in Biscoff sauce. Although the locally made ice cream hits the spot, you should look past the tempting display, and order squares of soğuk baklava from the small takeaway dessert shop instead. The chilled baklava is moist (almost soggy, in the best way) and sweet—it’s drenched in a milk-based syrup after baking, rather than a more traditional sugar and honey one. The school cake served with (hot) custard or ice cream is decent and satisfies that specific nostalgic craving, but the baklava is what we return for—rain or shine. photo credit: Daisy Meager" - Daisy Meager
