AL AQSA KUNAFEH

Nablus is famous throughout the country for its knafeh nabulsi, a pastry made from angel hair and cheese, soaked in syrup. And this historic pastry shop is reputed to make the best knafeh in the whole of the West Bank: if you ask where to eat this local delicacy, they'll certainly point you in the direction of this address, which has become a must-try over the years. You can enjoy it straight from the oven, if possible with a freshly brewed cup of coffee. It's a plunge into the beating heart of Nablus and its old town.
