Shatila Bakery

Salams and hi everyone!  Sorry this is up kind of late... I've been so busy prepping for Sudan.  I'm leaving Monday night Insha Allah and I will be there for the entire month of Ramadan.  Anyways, this post is about Shatila Bakery...

Shatila Bakery is located in Dearborn, Michigan... land of the Arabs!  The majority of the people living in Dearborn are Muslims and it really is a different world.  As you drive through the streets, you see all the store signs are in Arabic and you get a sense of nostalgia.  Dearborn is 2 hours away from me so its not that bad of a drive... plus, call me crazy, but I love driving... something about being out on the open road is so peaceful and serene.

Shatila Bakery is well known for its Arabic pastries... and ICE CREAM!  Shatila has the BEST ice cream I have ever tasted, and that's saying a lot!  They also sell a wide arrangement of French Pastries that are beyond delicious.  For some reason, this bakery reminds me a lot of Lebanon... I'm thinking the owners are probably Lebanese, which would explain why the sweets are so scrumptious!

If you are close to Dearborn, than you MUST go to Shatila and try out the pastries, you will love it!  Check out my Vlog where I show you the inside and buy some Arabic pastries... sorry the last bit of my head is chopped off, I clearly still don't know how to film -_-
