I had never heard of Kunefe before Trader Joe's started carrying this.
Texturally, it feels a bit like eating a bird's nest (or so I imagine). Fortunately, it's tastier. It's shredded dough with very mild cheese filling, topped with pistachios and a sweet syrup. I poured on just half of the supplied packet of syrup, because that seemed like plenty--and it was. I think using the whole packet would have made it too sweet.
Nina and I shared this for a dessert last week. We both liked it, though no raves.
Will I buy it again?
No. But I'm happy to have tried it once.
