Four seasons golf club prepares for Iftar feast

Created for the holy month of Ramadan, Four Seasons Golf Club will be offering an Iftar feast, together with all the trimmings, to break the daily fast from sunset through to 8pm. Served in The Tee Lounge and Blades Restaurant, Four Seasons’s Iftar buffet comprises an expansive selection of traditional Arabic dishes and beverages, alongside a myriad of international items.

A variety of succulent dates, refreshing regional juices like amar dain, erek-sous and karkadaih along with Ramadan soups from the cauldron will welcome guests on arrival. Dishes will be offered at various food stations offering guests a varied and eclectic choice, starting with cold or hot mezze including babaganoush, zaatar labneh, spinach sambousk and lamb kebbeh. A salad corner features marinated asparagus and grilled halloumi or sumac marinated hammour, while the global hot buffet includes foul medamas from a copper pot with tasty accoutrements, roasted lamb ouzi, shawarma and a live Arabic grill. Diners will also delight in the woks of Asia corner and steaming dishes like lamb stew with okra, chicken casserole and vermicelli rice. The all-inclusive Iftar rounds out with dry fruits and nuts, Ramadan sweets and desserts such as rich and creamy katayef asafiri, popular um ali as well as a Western-influenced selection of chocolate brownies and raspberry macaroons.

Iftar is offered at 160AED per person, all inclusive, with children under six dining for free, and those from six to 12 years of age dining at half price. 

For those who want to enjoy a later meal, an a la carte Sahour menu will be available from 8pm until 2am, served in The Tee Lounge or on the terrace of Blades Restaurant. The Sahour menu also takes its cue from the broad range of flavours from the Middle East and beyond. Guests can leisurely dine on Arabic favourites from waraq inab and manakish to kebab kashash and shish taouq, and end the evening with a selection of delicious local sweets.
