Sample a starlit Ramadan feast at Habtoor Grand Resort, Autograph Collection
Ramadan in Dubai is synonymous with grand feasts, warm gatherings, and enchanting settings, and Habtoor Grand Resort, Autograph Collection delivers all of that and more with its Grand Starlit Iftar at the Grand Garden Lawn. Nestled in a lush outdoor setting under a twinkling sky, this iftar is a sensory experience that blends authentic Arabian flavours with a touch of elegance.
A feast for the senses
From the moment you arrive, the ambiance sets the tone, rows of fairy lights, soft traditional music, and the inviting aroma of slow-cooked meats and freshly baked bread. Live cooking stations add an interactive element, allowing guests to watch chefs in action as they prepare fresh dishes on the spot.
The appetiser selection is a perfect mix of hot and cold bites. Crisp fattoush, golden kibba akras, and fresh Greek and Nicoise salads offer a refreshing start before the real indulgence begins.
An authentic culinary journey
The main course lineup is a masterclass in Arabian flavours. The malfouf mahshi, a delicately rolled cabbage stuffed with seasoned rice and meat, is packed with rich spices and slow-cooked to perfection. The kibbeh blaban, simmered in a creamy yogurt sauce, is a comforting dish that pairs beautifully with fragrant rice. And, of course, no Ramadan table is complete without ouzi; tender, slow-roasted lamb served on a bed of spiced rice, with crispy nuts adding just the right amount of crunch.
For drinks, the selection features traditional Ramadan favourites like jallab and kamar al dein, both of which offer a sweet and refreshing contrast to the meal’s bold flavours.
A sweet ending under the stars
The dessert station is a haven for those with a sweet tooth. From crispy, syrupy baklawa to soft, cheese-filled kunafa and delicate katayef, each bite is a nod to classic Middle Eastern sweets. Served fresh and warm, these desserts are the perfect way to end the meal on a high note.
An experience worth indulging in
At Dh230 everyday, this iftar is a well-rounded experience that balances quality, ambiance, and tradition. Whether you’re gathering with family, reconnecting with friends, or looking for an immersive Ramadan night out, the Grand Starlit Iftar at Habtoor Grand Resort, Autograph Collection is an excellent choice.
