Pide is delicious, but it is very bread-y. This was more pastry.Was it perhaps a sweet pide where the restaurant had made a variation on a usually savoury dish?
I hadn't, but I had a scroll through and it's none of these.unrecordings wrote: »I'm assuming you've looked here (with pictures) ?

Again neither, the only dairy element I could detect was butter rather than cream / cheese. And the nuts were the star, rather than the pastry.Flaounas?

I did actually email the bakery straight after I ate the goodies, before the packaging was disposed of. That was days ago w/o response, so I thought I'd try here.PipneyJane wrote: »Could you ask the restaurant? The receipt will have their name and Google may find you their website or email address.

Tomorrow I'm going to have a go at making it, using puff pastry. It's my Mum's birthday and I shall surprise her with it rather than a cake. (I have a box of baclava in reserve should it not work out...!). Next time I go to London I will make a trip to TFC, as they have fantastic instore bakeries.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
