DAAWAT-E-EID: A FEAST OF MEMORIES

When the crescent moon graces the night sky, the quiet reflection of Ramzan gives way to unfiltered joy. The streets light up with laughter, and the air carries the irresistible aroma of long-awaited feasts. Eid ul-Fitr is more than just the end of a month of fasting - it is a celebration of homecoming, nostalgia and tradition.

Across generations and borders, families reunite, their bonds reaffirmed over lavish spreads of fragrant biryanis, succulent gosht, crisp fritters and indulgent sweets.

Food, after all, is at the heart of every Eid celebration. We spoke to chefs who grew up celebrating this festival, each with cherished childhood memories tied to the dishes that define Eid for them.
