Iftar platters from around the town

Ramadan is a sacred time for reflection, devotion and togetherness. It is a month that strengthens bonds, bringing people closer not just in faith but in spirit.

As the sun sets, Iftar marks the first meal after a long day of fasting, a meal we prefer to enjoy with our near and dear ones. To make this experience even more special, restaurants across the city are offering curated menus and exclusive deals. 

TBS has rounded up four restaurants worth checking out this Ramadan, but make sure to book a reservation ahead of time to secure your spot.

For those with a bigger appetite, the Boro Platter, priced at Tk1,255, upgrades the experience further with a Boro Chicken Wrap, full portion of Buttermilk Fried Chicken Wings, and an extra sweet treat—a Nutella-filled brioche doughnut—alongside the Mejo Boston Brownie, fruits, dates, and water. The gradual progression from Choto to Boro makes the platters flexible for both light and hearty Iftar plans.
