Pistachio Baklava Bar

by Celia Sin-Tien Cheng
December 18, 2008

PITA JOE
2 W 14th St
(5th & 6th Aves)
New York, NY 10011

The pistachio baklava bar at Pita Joe is an exceptionally good option for dessert or snack. Crushed pistachio, shreds of phylo dough, and honey atop a shortbread-like bar, it’s fabulously crunchy and crumbly at the same time. The perfect companion for a cup of regular or Turkish coffee, the combination is worth savoring, but it just goes so fast.
