Nestled in Downtown Los Angeles, just west of the 110 Freeway next to the Orsini apartments, Mrs. Knafeh brings a taste of Palestine to the heart of the city. Owned by a passionate Palestinian woman, this adorable dessert trailer has become a must-visit destination for dessert lovers.
Mrs. Knafeh specializes in two varieties of knafeh. The Nabulsieh knafeh, authentic to the historic city of Nablus, offers a rich, cheesy texture soaked in sweet syrup. For those craving a crunch, the crispy knafeh made with shredded phyllo is freshly prepared to order.
In addition to knafeh, the trailer serves atayef, crescent-shaped dumplings stuffed with sweet cream, cheese, walnut-and-cinnamon, or cream cheese-and-coconut. Pair your dessert with strong, flavorful coffee or tea for the perfect treat.
The trailer operates Tuesdays through Wednesdays and Fridays through Sundays, opening at 3 p.m. You can find it at 505 N. Figueroa St., Los Angeles, CA 90012—a small location packed with big flavors. Whether you are seeking traditional Palestinian sweets or a unique LA dessert experience, Mrs. Knafeh is a must-try culinary destination.
