✔️ Absolutely incredible atmosphere. The bearded bakers are the highlight, so funny and entertaining. And coming from a Lebanese background, I can easily say that this was definitely up there with the best knafeh I've had!!! For people who don't know what knafeh is, it's a middle eastern dessert similar to a sweet custard with a crispy surface, served hot & with syrup. I personally drench mine in syrup, but I would recommend not to if you don't like too much sugar - knafeh is sweet already! ❌ A bit more sweet than authentic cheese knafeh in Lebanon (not necessarily a bad thing for sugar freaks like me) The line is never shorter than a 30 minute wait, but I guess you can expect that with such a popular business, and this isn't a big deal anyway because I find that the entertainment distracts you anyway!

One of the best food experiences I've ever had. Entertaining staff (singing and dancing, I think a prerequisite for the job) and high quality food to boast with the singing and dancing part, the cue is really long. Nevertheless, they simply can not help but smile as these bearded bakers passion in what they do. You can let the crowd go. One of the things that stood out for me was the inside of her food car in which the food came.

Find us on instagram: loveatfirstbite_aus Loved this Middle Eastern dessert that is best eaten hot! It tastes like an egg tart that is sweet and creamy on the inside and has a crunchy top. Also enjoyed the atmosphere of this food truck, there was music and dancing, which made for a great night! instagram.com

I have always loved knafeh when they kill their food truck and especially the mood they bring with their service! I visited her green acre store to try her white chocolate snowball and my good quality, it has beautifully paired with the warm knife! it was nice and there is more taste to try so I can't wait to go back!
