Okay, this might be a bit weird, but where in the general Davis Square area can one get really good baklava? Thanks for any ideas. :)

The best Baklava I've found is actually at a middle eastern restaurant. I prefer the baklava at the Sagra grill in Harvard Square (although the middle eastern food is much better around the corner from that place at the Falafel Corner).

Although to be honest, the best Baklava I've ever had was made by [livejournal.com profile] ifotismeni. Maybe you can ask her nicely to make you some? ;).

So now I'm curious, which variety do you make? Baklava is one of my go-to recipes and I stick with a (supposedly) Syrian version that's pistachios and sugar syrup (vs. other nuts/honey).

i looooove the syrian version so much, it is to me a lot more delicate and the pistachio is a fantastic contrast. being greek-american though my family recipe is punch-you-in-the-mouth sweet with rough-chop walnuts and really REALLY powerful honey syrup (usually pine or wildflower honey, never clover).
