Tell us about yourselves and your background – For those who have never been, how would you describe eating at Amphora?

Blue Amphora is a new establishment that stands out with its freshly made baklava, prepared daily. Our top priority is to serve our products at their freshest, every single day.

In addition to baklava, künefe, muhallebi, and other desserts, we also prepare savory delights such as börek and traditional Turkish paninis, using only the finest ingredients, all crafted in our own kitchen under the supervision of Chef Celine.

Instead of frozen or dry sweets, we focus on delivering a truly fresh and flavor-packed experience. For those visiting Blue Amphora for the first time, this is not just a place for desserts—it’s also a warm and inviting space enriched with high-quality coffee and delicious savory options.

Simit – Turkish bagels

What are your most popular foods right now?

Among our most popular sweets are our freshly prepared pistachio, walnut, Nutella, and cold baklava varieties. Additionally, for the first time, Chef Celine’s special recipe brings you Dubai Chocolate Baklava, a modern fusion of Turkish baklava and the unique pistachio texture of Dubai chocolate.

This exclusive creation, first introduced at Blue Amphora, offers a one-of-a-kind experience for chocolate and baklava lovers.

What is Turkish breakfast and Turkish coffee like?

A traditional Turkish breakfast features a satisfying spread of cheese, olives, tomatoes, simit (a circular Turkish bread similar to a bagel), börek (pastry), paninis, and hot Turkish tea.

Turkish coffee, with its unique aroma and frothy texture, pairs perfectly with our desserts. In addition, we offer specialty coffee varieties such as Pistachio Coffee, Ottoman Coffee, and Dibek Coffee, providing a unique taste experience.

What’s new and what’s coming up for Amphora this year?

This year, at Blue Amphora, we are expanding both our dessert and savory menus. Due to high customer demand, we will soon introduce the Traditional Turkish Amphora Kebab sandwich to our menu.

With our corporate orders and catering services, we aim to reach even more people.

Moreover, even before opening our physical store, we had already been shipping our freshly made baklava nationwide across the U.S., and we continue to do so by preparing orders fresh daily and shipping them the same day.
