Extremely expensive price for these little sweets that they treat you in front of their store. You have to ask for the price beforehand.We didn’t and after we paid, we were astonished by the price.Approximately 70€ per kilo!We paid 40-45€ for a cheap plastic box of little sweets.Even the most luxurious pastry and sweets in Paris, in stores looking like jewelry shops, they don’t have that price.A complete ripoff!!

Located in the Dubai Mall. They hand-make the ice cream and it is made to order. It is quite a show so be sure to have your camera out. I had the pistachio (not sure if there is any other flavor) but it was so delicious!! Not like anything I have ever tasted. It was so good I finished my first one and came back and got a second one. The shop is so beautiful and just luxuriously decadent. Highly recommend a visit here!

Call me biased but it is a rarity for me to culminate my visit to The Dubai Mall without eating Kounafa at Arabesq.I had first discovered this gourmét Arabic sweets shop as I walked past it and was drawn by the theatrics of a man as he with a very large wooden pestle lookalike pounded into a cavity of a large container. A fairly large crowd had gathered there and I also stood there enjoying the music the man made while pounding in a rhythm and then swirling the wooden apparatus in skilful circular motions from behind him to the front and back again. Not only was this a sight to behold but also It was my first introduction to the extremely popular Syrian hand pounded ice-cream called Booza . I will come back to the ice-cream in a later post.I am a huge fan of Kounafa or Kunafah and Trust me this place sells Kounafa which is my most favourite here in Dubai. The crunchy bite from the pistachios to the fragrant sugar syrup to the gooey cheese everything in this sweet just sweeps me off my feet and takes my senses on a ride of robust aroma and indescribable taste. This is my food heaven for sure. Try Arabaic sweets at this boutique sweet shop and you will be really happy that I told you about this place.NOT A SPONSORED POSTFood ~ 5/5Service ~ 4/5Ambience ~ 4/5Value for Money ~ 4/5Family and Children Friendly ~ 4/5Parking ~ AvailableMust try ~ Kunafah

Great icecream and they deliver too!but yesterday at the mall I saw one of the guys working there reach over the icecream counter and take a handful of pistachios with his bare hands, eat it, and lick his fingers when done. Extremely unhygienic, I wouldnt want those pistachios in my icecream!!

It’s just amazing, nothing like I’ve ever had. Found the photo by chance while in Instagram and really want to taste this dessert with ice cream and pistachio on top. Cannot describe the chewy texture but it’s just yummy!!!!!!!!! Must try!

DO NOT LEAVE THE DUBAI MALL without going here. Arabesq serves bakdash - this is a Yemeni Ice Cream, pounded with a big stick then smothered in pistachios before it is served to you.Arabesq also has freshly made Palestinian pastries, but they go on rotation - so it is best to go at different times (yes, Im that greedy) and sample everything you can. Its not in any ways cheap, but the portions are good enough to share for 2-3 people.They give out samples of their goods, so be sure to try some as well.

Good selection of sweets and ice cream inside the Dubai Mall, although I was expecting something more. There is a little show to prepare the ice cream.
