Baklava or Baklawa is a rich, sweet pastry featured in many cuisines of the former Ottoman countries. It is a pastry made of layers of phyllo dough filled with chopped walnuts or pistachios and sweetened with syrup or honey.
Gaziantep, a city in Turkey, is famous for its baklava and, in Turkey, is widely regarded as the native city of the dessert.

First of all Baklava is NOT a greek desert, it belongs to turkish cuisine and home city of baklava is Gaziantep. Greeks come close Turkish islands to buy baklava and then they turn to their homes.
well I think that it is the best desert on the earth :))

baklava is to die for.....phyllo dough layers coated with butter, chopped walnuts and drenched in honey after it is baked. If made right, it is so good.
