CELEBRATE the true spirit of the season at one of the kingdom’s largest and most elegantly designed Ramadan tents.
The Ritz-Carlton Bahrain is pulling out all the stops with a tent inspired by the famous Tree of Life and palm dates of Bahrain.
Masaya Pavilion by stc will be an ode to culture and traditions and the wondrous selection of authentic Middle Eastern and international specialties, highlighted by local ingredients.
“Ramadan is a time of gratitude, solidarity and generosity. It means a time of giving and sharing with the local community,” general manager Bernard de Villele said.
“We have always been a strong advocate for sustainability as well, therefore aside from reducing food wastage by donating to Conserving Bounties (Bahrain Food Bank), we will be using local ingredients and artisan products such as clay pots from the Farmers Market,” he added.
“Locally grown and sourced food items including fresh vegetables, honey, dates and more will complement our grand buffet as we endeavour to serve a selection of food that is not only good for your body, but also for the Earth,” he added.
The epicurean journey over iftar and ghabga features a diverse mix of Arabic and international dishes, but amongst the must-have items are ouzi, koshary, shawarma, tajine, majboos, Bahraini grills, bread and date ice cream.
This year’s selection also includes Iranian dishes, paella, pizza, Bahraini kebab with pickles and sauce, tandoori meats, fresh pasta, zaatar and tahina-flavoured ice cream, and more.
“Ramadan is a special time in Bahrain for all families and we have arranged a unique line-up of activities that will bring us closer to the community and our customers,” stc Bahrain chief commercial officer Karim Tabbouche said.
“We are also pleased to continue our strategic partnership with The Ritz-Carlton Bahrain for the 13th consecutive year, with the aim of offering a pleasant and enjoyable Ramadan experience at the popular ‘Masaya Pavilion by stc Ramadan tent.”
Behbehani Brothers deputy executive director Hussain Shirazi explained that Ramadan is more than just fasting. “It’s about promoting unity, understanding and community cohesion,” he said.
“Bentley, Lamborghini and Porsche centre Bahrain, under the umbrella of Behbehani Brothers are proud to sponsor the Masaya Pavilion at The Ritz-Carlton Bahrain, where the community can come together to break their fast and celebrate the holy month of Ramadan in a spirit of unity and togetherness,” he added.
Guests will be entertained by a three-piece band headed by talented singer Ali Alrasheed, daily from 9.30pm, and are welcome to join for iftar from sunset to 8pm, for BD34, and the ghabga from 9pm to 2am, for BD37. A special rate is available for groups of 30 and above.
