Name of Shop: Muhanna Sweets
This is a very well known sweets shop. There are various branches in Damascus. Fouad recommended it ...The cookies I got are sooooo good. They have sesame seeds and pieces of pistachio nuts and other flavors.....they are very light and tasty.....When you go into the store, you can see the baker making many kinds of cookies. I was surprised it was such a simple shop, i was expecting something very fancy,etc....but it was just a simple bakery
What To Buy: the seasame cookies. Not sure of the proper name......
What To Pay: I think I paid around 250-300 syrian pounds.....about $ 3-4 I believe.....
They also had these rolled pastries with pistachios in the middle.......they were more expensive, those were around 450 syrian pounds....i didnt get those though. The cookies were about half of that.
