Creamy, nutty, and absolutely irresistible, try the Pistadáo Softserve before it's gone!
9. llaollao
Technically, llaollao doesn't have it's own pistachio kunafa flavour, but you can easily DIY it with their existing sauces and toppings hehe!
Choose a medium or large size, which allows you to get three toppings for your frozen yoghurt. Opt for their pistachio sauce and chocorock sauce, to give you that addictive pistachio-chocolate combo. Finish it off with a crunch topping of your choice to mimic the crunch of the kunafa. A recommendation would be their new light yet crispy Butter Crisp topping.
Alternatively, you could go for the Pistachio Lover option from their LUXE menu, which is basically a frozen yoghurt parfait with pistachio sauce, kiwi slices, and almond crocanti.
