सभी का स्वागत
All Welcome
All Welcome
The festive season is about to hit its stocking-clad stride. And while we’ll be Christmas jumper-wearing, mince pie-eating and last-minute shopping, we’ll be keeping a close eye out. Here’s our list of things to do in December (in between sips of Chai eggnog).
We’re feeling proud reading:-
These Delicious Things, a cookbook filled with nostalgic stories of childhood, and delicious recipes from the UK’s top foodies, including our very own Chef Naved. All to support children living in food poverty.
We’re gifting our loved ones with:-
Anisha Parmar’s glinting new Jāli collection of jewellery and homeware. Anisha’s designs speak to her three-continent-spanning heritage, and this collection is inspired by the ornamental Jāli building facades found in South Asia.
We’re shaking off labels with:-
Bollyqueer, a dance company made by and for queer people. Escape the binary and embrace the joy of Bollywood at their free dance class, shaking and shimmying as the beautiful person you are.
We’re clutching our sides at:-
The latest show from India’s biggest stand-up comedian (and the first to win an Emmy), Vir Das. He’ll wow you with incisive insights and perfect comic timings, and win you over with unexpected vulnerability.
Vaisakhi, a day marked across India by people of many faiths, is celebrated in the Punjab as the start of the new Harvest. It falls on the 13th or 14th April depending on the calendar for that year.
Spring has gently tiptoed in. As the days lengthen and the sun grows bolder, here’s a glimpse of what we eagerly await in April.
We’re turning page after page of Ayesha Erkin’s recipe book Date of the Day, featuring 30+ recipes for the modest date – timely for breaking fast and after. Our dear friend Ayesha has now kindly shared a recipe for you to make at home. Try it this Iftar or any time you need a salty-spiced sticky treat.
The holy month of Ramadan is upon us, when Muslims around the world fast daily from dawn till dusk. It is a time of private worship and spiritual discipline, but also of shared joy and abundant feasting. Families and communities come together at suhoor, the pre-dawn meal, and at iftar, the evening meal, to break their fasts with copious, delicious dishes. Join us on 7th April for our own Iftar celebration – for an evening of feasting and live music.
