Day 321: Baklava

We originally planned to pick some baklava up at Sesame Donuts. I called ahead and they didn't have any but said their sister store should. I called them and it seems like their sister store didn't even know what baklava was. I ended up calling two Nicolas restaurants to get the needed treat.

I think my three favorite words are balalaika, balaclava, and baklava. I've heard a balalaika and worn a balaclava, but I've never had baklava. It was pretty good. Very sweet. It reminded me a little of French toast. I'm not a fan of French toast, true, but that's mostly due to the egg and sogginess. The flavor works better with the crisp flaky dough.
