The description on their menu underscores a straightforward, traditional preparation that fits into a broader lineup of Mediterranean plates. Bites start with a brittle, golden top layer that gives way to chopped nuts and syrup, making it a simple but satisfying dessert after gyros or shawarma. Being located by the neighborhood’s landmark statue, it often serves as a convenient stop for a quick savory meal followed by this pastry.[9]
