Dishoom Eid Milan 2017🌹

Hey Bloggers, hope you're all doing well! Yes, I am back after a long time! :) 

So as you may or may not know, Eid has just passed, the much-loved event that marks the end of dawn-to-sunset fasting during the holy month of Ramadan and to celebrate this special occasion, Dishoom (well-known restaurant)  hosted an Eid party at the Lewis Cubitt Suqare, opposite the restuarant. Welcoming Muslims and non-Muslims.

As we entered the event, we were welcomed with Chai (Indian tea), mithai (Indian sweets), and Indian soft drinks Thums up and Limca. And hand made Meetha Paan (a popular Indian digestive). There were loads of fun family activities like henna artists, face painters, and balloon artists, we also enjoyed the presence of an art exhibition from Fouadisms, who also wrote our names beautifully in Arabic calligraphy. And not forgetting the live performances by popular artists, keeping us well entertained. 

And now the main part, FOOOD! 

We enjoyed really nice street food, including Mother Clucker, Saltwood Fish Bar, Grill my cheese, Curry On, and a massive Dishoom biryani! The street food had to be paid for which was reasonably priced as we got a decent portion. 

It was definitely a day full of fun and I'd recommend everyone to visit at least once, but just to let you know, you do have to purchase a ticket in order to enter; Tickets are £7 (grown-ups) / £4 (kids aged 2-15, anyone younger than 2 doesn’t need a ticket) plus booking fees. 

The tickets include entry to the event, Dishoom drinks, paan, mithai and all activities. However, the street food is not included in the ticket price and Dishoom only accepts card payments for the Biryani. All food is halal, and this is an alcohol-free event.

And to remind you, for every ticket sold, Dishoom donate £1 to Seeds of Peace, a charity helping teenagers from regions of conflict learn the skills of making peace, so all for a good cause :)

My little brother got his face painted & his little monkey balloon.
