Indulge in our Homemade Baklava at Maggi's Syrian Food — flaky layers of phyllo pastry filled with a thick layer of crushed pistachios and drenched in perfectly portioned honey syrup. Repeatedly called 'the best baklava in the city' by our customers. A taste of Syria in Transcona, Winnipeg.
Our Homemade Baklava is a labour of love, handcrafted using a traditional Syrian recipe passed down through the Hadad family. Each piece features delicate layers of paper-thin phyllo pastry, carefully brushed with butter and filled with a generous layer of finely crushed pistachios, then baked to golden perfection and soaked in a fragrant honey syrup.
What sets our baklava apart is the balance — the phyllo is impossibly flaky, the pistachio layer is thick and nutty, and the honey syrup is perfectly portioned so every bite is sweet without being overpowering. Reviewers consistently call it the best baklava in Winnipeg, and it's the perfect way to finish any Syrian meal or bring home as a treat.
