I engaged Al Salam International Foods to provide Baklava for 120 guests at my son's wedding last weekend. The baklava was absolutely beautiful and it was delicious! Many of our guests commented about how the baklava was such a wonderful surprise at a wedding, rather than the traditional wedding cake. Rasha and Zoe were so easy to work with too. As the mother of the groom, I had many worries that everything would be perfect on the wedding day, but Rasha and Zoe made me feel confident that the baklava would be great.....and it was! When I picked it up (5 half sheet pans) to transport to the wedding venue, they had carefully wrapped each sheet pan in plastic and then boxed each pan separately so that it was very easy to transport. This was over and above my expectations and I was very grateful for their extra care. I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for high quality international foods.
