Aladdin Restaurant Baklava

- #7598
Aladdin Restaurant has some of the best baklava. The phyllo dough is light and flaky, and the filling is sweet and nutty. The honey syrup adds a touch of sweetness and keeps the baklava moist.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
