Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Super-sizing Ramadan: The Middle East's glitziest tent feasts
What is Ramadan? It is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar when Muslims worldwide observe this as a month of fasting from dawn to sunset. Muslims refrain from eating, drinking and smoking during the fast. Food and drinks are only served before sunrise and after sunset.
After enduring fasting during the day, hungry Muslims enjoy feasting after sunset, to an extent that some health offices warn people not to eat too much.
It seems that this break-fasting meal is a great business opportunity for restaurants and hotels to serve extraordinary dishes that make those devout Muslims indulged in. Of course. If one eats only once or twice a day, restaurants can get customers only once or twice a day but their budget is twice or three times richer than a regular meal!
Enjoy reading and learning what Ramadan business is about in oil rich Arabian countries.
