Itihaas: Iftar in Birmingham
The holy month of Ramadan is here, and friends and families across the city are gathering at sunset to break their fast together. For this month, until the 28th March, we welcome guests to come and enjoy iftar in our restaurant.
Many of our diners this month are visiting our restaurant after fasting, and we acknowledge them with a special Thali menu. Our Iftar menu offers exclusive dishes that cannot be found on our regular menu and is designed to bring the flavours of home-cooked food so popular during Ramadan.
Our Iftar Thali Menu 2024
“When one of you is fasting, he should break his fast with dates; but if he cannot get any, then (he should break his fast) with water, for water is purifying.” – Book 14, Hadith 43
Begin with an initial appetiser of dates and a glass of Rose Sherbet.
Served thali style, all dishes are prepared and served together in smaller bowls, with butter naan. This traditional serving style was popularised by the Mughal emperors and has become widely known as a South Asian “tapas” style of sharing food.
