I Know One Reason Why I Should Go to Turkey: Baklava!

I saw this sweet delicacy often every time i went to Nazar to buy some halal meat. I want to buy some-always want to buy some- but i don't remember why i never did. Until yesterday. Yesterday, finally i managed to ask for it ( it comes in variety of shape in a small box, about eight pieces of baklavas, i don't even remember how much do i have to pay for it), and in a hurry, i rode fast home because i want to taste it.

And boy did i tasted it. It tasted like heaven (or that's how i describe heaven. Like a perfect Baklava). It's sweet, but not too sweet, and those nuts and honey are just just melting in my mouth, i can't even describe it.

So went i to Google, and ask about Baklava, and it turned out that originally, Baklava come from Turkey (Central Asian Turkic origin) and it come from the imperial kitchen of Topkapi Palace. That it made of phyllo pastry (that i don't even know how it looks like) and originally, it was served during the Ramadhan.

But the funny thing is, when i try to search the recipes, almost all of it said that Baklava comes from Greece.  So which one is right? But anyway, Greece is not too bad (even a good one) of a place to go :p

Anyway, regardless who is right, surely i would try to bake one. Once i get my hand on some phyllo pastry. And get a grip on my mood. Which one come first.

update: from the kitchenproject it turned out that the Greek got it from the Mesopotamia (from the Assyrian) and that this kind of food is quite common in Mediterranean,  but it is the Turks according to the Wikipedia who creates the layer of dough, the leaf (phyllo in Greek, hence the name phyllo pastry), and that the Greek usually use walnut and the Turks use pistachio.
