Couldn't resist having a Baklava when I was in Fort today. Having heard so much about Hurrems Turkish Baklava Confectionery, I walked in to enjoy their Turkish delight.

The place is cozy and has an elegant ambience. Without wasting anytime I rushed to check the assortment of Baklava. I was soon joined by an attendance who was more keen than me and assisted me in making my choice. I ended up buying an assortment of pastries.

Baklava are layered pastry dessert filled with chopped dry nuts, usually sweetened with honey or flavoured syrup. The Baklava here were pretty sweet and they didn't use honey (my guess from the taste). Taste wise I would give them a 3 out 5. The reason being, considering they are charged high, I was expecting fresh nuts to be used. But the walnut Baklava had rancid Walnuts. You can make it out with the distinction paint thinner smell that Walnuts give, when not stored in airtight container. The other choices were good.

The food is good. One should definitely try the borek. I wouldn't recommend the iced drinks. They are okay but not worth the money. The place has a good ambience and a great place to go with a friend or partner. The service is good.

About the Baklava - Truly Authentic and tasty Baklava for sure.

However, it’s extremely costly so would say price to performance is average.

I ordered all the varieties of Baklava in the Menu and the classic four Baklavas are the best. Chocolate one is also good. Best is cashew wala.

They stopped taking dine in orders post 9:30pm. Their kitchen closed at 9pm so no kunafa be ordered post 9 pm.

Ambience is pretty. I would recommend this place to try it once.
