where is good Dubai chocolate in Dmv?

[Anonymous]

Order online. I live in the Persian Gulf, for work, and it is not actually Dubai chocolate at all. It is a Turkish sweet that somehow someone named Dubai chocolate, and now even Turks call it that. I have rows of Kunafa chocolates in a grocery store, Swiss ones too, that are insanely expensive.
I can't eat it due to a dairy allergy (they have a vegan option, which is eh), but my friends tell me that Ulker from Turkey is the best-tasting one. It's overpriced on Amazon; I buy one bar, which is a bit smaller than some others, for less than $3.

It's baklava with chocolate on top. And with too many pistachios.

I tried this and was disappointed. No pistachio flavor, not enough crunchy kadafi filling. More like green colored white chocolate filling with milk chocolate on the outside. Too sweet.

You mean knafeh? What is kadafi filling? Kunafa, or knafeh, is what I know it is called.

You didn’t miss anything. It tastes G-d awful.

I think all the influencers are lying when they go on and on about how delicious it is. it’s totally overhyped. people are using crappy cheap chocolate to make it.

Agree
It's good but nothing special

Overhyped for the money.

I bought some at duty free, and liked it. Can't remember the brand.

It's just different, that's all. It has a nice crunch. If you like pistachio and chocolate, you'll love it. It's not intended to be better, just something else to try. Comparing it to a pure chocolate bar, truffle, or praline doesnt make sense. Its just a chocolate sweet with a unique filling.

My dd loves it, as do many of my young coworkers.

I don't eat it, but I have heard Balducci's has it.

Too expensive to even try. This is what I'd call a risk of disappointment purchase, given the feedback here, so I'm not even going to try. Plus I don't really like pistachios.

I saw it in the candy store at Westfield Montgomery near the food court

I think pp meant Kataifi (which is the knafeh flavor). I know kataif are different, but some bars with kunafa were called kataifi
