It is a pastry.
There are different kinds of it. One of it is made with filo pastry. And there are different nuts in it. Or pistachios. Some of them have honey on top of them and some other have rose water.
If you want to buy some, buy either the Lebanese or Persian.
I haven't tried the Turkish kind yet.
I had them for desert today... YUM-O! with some Persian tea.

It's one of the best sweets ever! Of tourkish or greek origin.
It's a delicious dessert, especially in Summer time!
It means: (that) fills the look up! When one sees it, he stares at it eyes open. Or when eaten, makes one looking around with eyes wide open!
From turkish "bak"=look. al=the and va=eat.
