The On Illyrian Reason I knew This is because I have a tablespoon of honey Balkanian In me Filo means Spinach Chopped Greens or Greeks something that reminds to support my local Greek Cafe Thankyou!

I have more commonly seen it spelt as philo pastry. I use philo each Christmas season to make baklava.

I was first introduced to this pastry as baklava, but it wasn't filled with nuts and honey.

Philippines also have these kind of pastry they call it piyaya
