At its next OTB Gourmet evening, the OTB team offers a feast for all the senses!
Expect an unforgettable night of Syrian flavour, culture, music and fun on 22nd March to share with friends and family in the beautiful setting of The Arcade, Ilkley.
A spokesperson for OTB Gourmet said:
“We are thrilled to welcome Huda and her ‘Road to Damascus’ team, joining forces with Team OTB to create a truly memorable evening of food, community, and purpose.
“Syrian cuisine offers a journey through Syria’s rich history and cultural diversity with food that is a celebration and delightful blend of flavours, aromas and culinary traditions.”
Diners can enjoy a 3-course supper featuring a choice of 6 starters, 7 mains, and 2 desserts. Meat & vegetarian options available.
There will be a presentation and quiz, and the event bar will be serving wines and beers throughout the evening.
Huda, originally from Damascus, lived in Aleppo before moving to the UK as a refugee in 2022. With support from the Nidderdale Welcome Community Group, she is pursuing her dream of running her own catering business, building on her and her husband Mohamad’s experience in Syria.
Arrival from 6:30pm for drinks, seating at 7:00pm.
Tickets are £35, a £5.00 per person deposit is required. Tables for 2, 4, 6 and 8 guests are available.
