Arafat Sweets

February 9, 2023
3 / 5

The Verdict

Arafat Sweets, serving Arabic or Ghazzawi kunafa, which tends to be slightly salty, and more creamy, with the distinctive Gaza flavors of nuts, nutmeg, and cinnamon that replace the cheese. Rating is #good

About this Restaurant

Open for Business

In 1912 two brothers, Mohammad and Ahmad and their mother went from Gaza, Palestine to Beri Al Saba in the Negav Desert with only a tent and a dream at the start of WWI. They set up a make shift restaurant where Turkish Soldiers would eat and some would pay and some wouldn’t.
