Embarras de choix, gros line up quand on est arrivé pourtant c'est presque la fermeture, par contre la texture de ashta est trop dense & la pistache est trop sucre pour moi personnellement. J'essayerai d'autre items comme kunefe ça a l'air bon aussi 🤔
Authentic, creamy, & absolutely delicious. The Ashta flavor is a masterpiece with the perfect traditional texture. A must-visit for any ice cream lover!

Bouza should come with a warning label. This place is sooooo good it ruins your ability to behave like a normal adult.
We got the ashta & pistachio Bouza shaped like a bûche de Noël, which already feels illegal outside of Christmas. One bite in & it's over. Fresh, rich, perfectly chewy, creamy, nutty… it literally feels good in your mouth. Not just tasty. Comforting. Emotional. Dangerous.
You take a piece, enjoy it, feel proud of yourself… & then immediately want another piece. & another. & suddenly the'additional piece' doesn't feel optional anymore, it feels necessary. Like oxygen.
Price is actually very decent, which makes this even more dangerous because now there's no excuse not to go back. Or order more. Or pretend you're'just tasting.'
If you like pistachio, ashta, or happiness in general, go. If you're trying to show self-discipline, maybe don't.
I went to Carrefour Laval last weekend & found a lovely ice cream shop called Bouza. They sell artisanal Mediterranean-style ice cream. I decided to try the Ashta flavor, because it is one of their emblematic flavors & of course the traditional chocolate. Amazing flavors, especially Ashta. The consistency of the ice cream is really different, slightly chewy, unlike traditional ice cream. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend
Bouza MTL in Laval serves one of the most unique desserts I've ever tried. The Bouza Ashta is creamy, chewy, & made from scratch using traditional Lebanese techniques that give it a one-of-a-kind texture. The flavour is delicate yet rich, with a hint of floral notes, & the pistachio topping adds the perfect crunch.
The quality of ingredients is unmatched, & you can tell each scoop is crafted with care. Staff are warm & welcoming, & the presentation is beautiful. Whether you're from Laval or driving in from Montreal, this spot is worth the trip. It's unlike any ice cream experience you've had before - & it's absolutely delicious.
