Bakdash (ice cream parlor)

Bakdash (Arabic: بَكْدَاش, romanized: Bakdāš), alternatively romanised as Bakdach, is a landmark ice cream parlor in the Al-Hamidiyah Souq in the ancient city of Damascus. Established in 1895, it is famous for its traditional Middle Eastern booza—a mastic frozen dairy dessert. It is noted around the Arab world and has become a popular tourist attraction.
