3 Desserts to Order at Sufi Kitchen

1. Baklava

Most patrons of Persian food establishments are at least somewhat familiar with baklava. These pastries are made from roasted, chopped nuts and layers of flaky filo. They’re typically filled with honey or another sweet syrup to hold it all together. It is one of the most popular Mediterranean desserts available. Sufi Kitchen uses only the finest ingredients to put these sweets together, so you know you’re getting authentic, high quality Persian food.

2. Faloodeh

Sometimes compared to a sorbet, faloodeh is a beloved Persian dessert. This one-of-a-kind dish generally contains vermicelli noodles, rose water, lime or lemon juice, and a light drizzling of cherry syrup. Some restaurants top it with chopped pistachios or saffron as well. The noodles are frozen, giving  it a unique texture and pleasing crunch. If you’re looking for a lighter, more delicate dessert, this is the dish for you.

3. Persian Ice Cream

Persian food is well-known for packing plates with flavor, and Persian ice cream is no exception. Also referred to as Bastani Sonnati, this delightful dessert consists of milk, rose water, eggs, vanilla, sugar, pistachios, and sometimes salep. Frozen chips of clotted cream are often mixed in to produce rich flavors. Anyone who likes ice cream will love this dish. Although it may be difficult to find in Metro Atlanta, Sufi Kitchen serves this dessert fresh and creamy.
