Iftar dinner 1

 Iftar dinner is a meal (a grand dinner) that is traditionally prepared by Muslims during the Ramadan month. Last weekend we were invited by our friend Mr. Sunsih to have Iftar dinner along with friends and family. Kids started playing and we all sat and had some interesting conversations. We could get an understanding of this festival and the way fasting is observed.  We were all  amazed at his wife's dedication on cooking that elaborate meal even while fasting. Each and every dish tasted perfect (It's really a big mystery how Mrs. Shaila had managed to prepare everything without tasting).  I am sure it is her concentration and love for cooking  that  has made this elaborate feast a success. Here is the list of dishes she has prepared for the Iftar dinner (noting them down, as far as I remember....). That's a vast menu and we enjoyed it totally !
