im greek and im a chef, and to be honest I don't care who invented it because we have many Turkish influences in our cuisine as the turkish have in theirs from us, so I just simply suggest to just enjoy this delicious treat.

Best Turkish Baklava in the World! :)

Personally I don't really care who invented it. I made it a few times and it turned out well, but I can see that I'd rather eat what's here in this video than mine. Most definitely! :)
