Ramadan Experience Re-Imagined at The Ritz-Carlton, Bahrain

MANAMA, KINGDOM OF BAHRAIN--(Marketwired - Jun 17, 2015) - The Ritz-Carlton, Bahrain is prepared for an unprecedented Ramadan celebration as it presents a haven of hospitality and personalized service for guests for the duration of the holy month. Visitors are invited to dine with family and friends in two majestic venues at the luxury Bahrain hotel created specifically for the occasion; The Glow Ramadan Lounge and Al Khayma Ramadan tent. With a wide selection of traditional Bahraini cuisine, guests can look forward to an awe-inspiring, unforgettable culinary experience.

The Glow - Ramadan Lounge
The Glow - Ramadan Lounge will mesmerize guests with a thirteen meter high, dome-shaped pavilion, complimented by large see-through verandas contemplating the night's sky. The Bahrain event venue boasts a large dining area with oversized seats welcoming up to 200 loungers from sunset to sunrise. This oasis has been created solely for the Holy month of Ramadan. Yet, the focal point of The Glow, is an avant-garde car display, rotating on a daily basis and showcasing the world's most leading edge engines. The epicurean odyssey is exhilarated by the 40 square meter foodie-verse where seasonal-inspired favorites of kushari (combination of vegetables), ouzi, shawarma, lekemet (dough balls fried and dipped in date syrup and powder sugar) and kham (soft dough balls flavored with honey), blend in with the culinary most exuberant creations such as the Arabic sushi line, and the Halwa or dried fruits flavored macaroon collection. The luminous décor, fusion cuisine, chilled dj vibes, and state-of-the-art architecture of The Glow is designed to make guests set a social trend of their own as they indulge in a stylish Ramadan experience re-imagined by The Ritz-Carlton, Bahrain.

Al Khayma
Enter the realm of Ramadan as you step into a maze of lights, scents and colors inside Al Khayma. The most renowned Ramadan tent will surprise guests with its décor inspired by the oriental souk of Fez. An alley of hanging lanterns guides guests into the warm interiors of Al Khayma. Inside, long turquoise and gold drapes, crystal chandeliers and hanging light spheres, an imaginative fanoosh wooden cage, and a soothing tree of lights adorn the tent and set the stage onto an alluring culinary line up. Large buffet spreads of tajines, masbooj, saffron rice, falafel rolls, and five varieties of dates (amongst which khedri, khloas, segai, sokari and bahri), are complimented by live cooking stations of saj bread, shanaad or sheeri Bahraini grills, fresh pasta, pad thai noodles, tandoori meats, or fresh fruit carving -- amongst the many more delicacies. The culinary line up resembles a series of street food and spices stalls, inviting celebrants through an awakening sensory experience, where the pleasure of breaking the fast marries the joy of sharing lasting memories with family and dear ones. The atmosphere is enlivened by Al Khayma instrumental band whose renditions will fill the air majestically.

Fusing traditions with grandeur, both venues will serve some of the most appreciated Ramadan beverages, including karkadeh, vimto, laban, apricot or tamarind drink, and jellab. The Glow offers a selection of traditional and special-flavors of shisha, while Al Khayma provides a parted area for families and non-smokers. The all-important fast breaking will be treated to a memorable Ramadan celebration as guests can also enjoy the comforts and dedicated service of their own private pergola for Iftar and Ghabgha, including silver service of selected hot buffet items and three complimentary shishas.
