FAVE HANGOUT SPOT? Knafati Cafe!

Kunafah (Arabic: كُنافة‎) is a traditional Palestinian dessert made with cheese pastry soaked in sweet, sugar-based syrup. It is pretty popular throughout the Arab world.

There are SO many types of kunafah, bases khashna and na’amah, filled with cheese or cream.

Khashna is a more coarse and crunchier base, and it’s my personal favourite.

Na’amah is a more softer base and is usually preferred by most.

Generally kunafah is filled with cheese, however sometimes cream is a more sweeter subtle tasting one.

If you have a sweet tooth, you must try the Nutella Kunafa, you’ll never want to have normal Kunafa ever again!

They also have different types of sweets. Head over to my highlights to check it out.

Apart from sweets, they also have a variety of coffee. Their Turkish coffee is an absolute delight and contains the perfect amount of coffee for a coffee lover like me. If you’re not a big fan of coffee, you must try their Arabic coffee. It is the second best thing if you can’t handle all the caffeine.

Overall, Knafati Cafe  has a great ambience and super friendly staff. It is currently our favourite hang out place in Al Khuwair.
