I recently visited this cafe to try the baklava, but unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. There was only one person working, which seemed to cause a lot of stress and resulted in very slow service. Most importantly, the baklava did not taste fresh. As you can see in the photo, the sugar had crystallized on top, suggesting it may have been sitting out for a few days. Freshness is vital for health and quality, and I expected better. I hope the management addresses these service and freshness issue
