Tonight, the end of Ramadan, begins Eid al-Fitr. The long and short of it is that Muslims break the fast of Ramadan.
To celebrate, and to ensure that we understand the appropriate cultural bits, they had an Eid celebration tonight at the MWR. It was basically a small presentation about Eid plus a bunch of food (I love Middle Eastern food). The double-bonus was the fact that it meant that I could avoid the DFAC tonite...even though it was chicken cordon bleu night (not to be missed from what I hear).
Briefly, my review of the food...
Chickpea samaosa: awesome
Meat samosa: awesome
Lamb kabab: awesome
Chicken kabob: awesome
Stuffed grape leaves: awesome
Salad-type dish with spicy dressing: awesome
Dates: awesome
Various Middle Eastern sweets: awesome
Very good end to the day.
