Damascus, Syria
Bakdash
Bakdash is one of Damascus's most enduring ice cream institutions, operating from the Al-Hamidiyah Souq and built around a tradition of stretching and pounding kaymak-laden booza that has defined Syrian frozen confectionery for generations. The spectacle of preparation is inseparable from the product itself, placing it at the intersection of street food culture and living culinary heritage in one of the Middle East's oldest continuously inhabited cities.
