Baklava can be found in many different countries around the world with each nation adding their own unique twist. If you are looking for the Greek version then Afroditi Bakery is the place to head. Their baklava comes swimming and oozing with honey syrup, not the Middle Eastern kind which is much drier. More like a gooey pudding than a dry Christmas cake. If you live more downtown, you can also find the famous Afroditi Bakery's baklava at the PA Supermarket on rue du Fort.
Afroditi Bakery is really a great space which makes you feel like you are in Paris! Enjoy your dessert of choice amongst dozens of options including of serving size cakes, cookies and some savory pastries such as the Cheese Pie Tyropita and Spinach Pie Spanakopita. Also very note worthy are the famous Greek cookies Malomakarno and Kourabiades. These are defintely some of the best I have ever tasted at any Montreal Greek restaurant or bakery!
Afroditi Bakery is also open late, welcoming a post-dinner excursion. Afroditi Bakery is at 756, rue St-Roch, open from 8am-8pm Mon-Wed, 8am-9pm Thurs-Sun.
