Two Bandra-based sisters, Tasneem Mukadam and Insiya Tambawala, decided that the city needed to be introduced to the Bohri cuisine. The cuisine is shaped by years of trade and voyages, bringing together flavours from around the Indian Ocean: Persian, Yemeni, Mughlai, with influences from Gujarat and East Africa. The duo started A Feast with Friends, their monthly initiative, in February this year. The objective was to invite strangers for a hearty eight-course traditional Bohri meal over a Sunday. This Sunday will be their eighth sit-down at their home.
