Thanks to the warm welcome from the Al Zarooni family, I got a chance to experience a traditional Ramadan Iftar with an Emirati family, after living in the UAE for 23 years.
This was also the first time I welcomed the Holy Month of Ramadan outside my own home. Arriving at 5:30pm, I was greeted by Samira Al Zarooni, mother of five sons and three daughters, with a beaming smile to her two-storey villa at Al Wasl in Dubai.
Iftar not about just food, but family The concept of Ramadan varies from person to person. Here's what the Al Zarooni family has ?to say. Samira Al Zarooni says: "It's not about the food, it's about family. Without the other members of the family around, it is just five of us at the table and not much fun." "But the good thing is, you are not distanced from the family anymore, thanks to modern technology. Back in the day, transport and making phone calls were difficult, but now all forms of communication are easily available." Talking about food, Samira's children love Chinese cuisine, and she ensures that Chinese goodies are on the table for the first day ?of Ramadan. "My kids love Chinese, so I included it in today's menu," Samira said. The chicken noodles are the biggest hit. Another creative appetiser is the cheese sambousa with zaatar. |
