Abu Dhabi Quarterly in 80 Bites:
January 22, 2026

Join us for our quarterly Abu Dhabi gathering at Kabab Erbil Restaurant on Thursday, January 22, at 7:30 PM!

Dear fellow alumni,

Please join us for our quarterly Abu Dhabi gathering on Thursday, 22 January 2026.
 

To spice up the evening—quite literally—we are delighted to combine this gathering with Rizwan’s “Around the World in 80 Bites” initiative. This concept celebrates cultural exploration through food, inviting us to be culturally curious by “visiting” different countries and experiencing their cuisine while learning about their history, culture, and art. Living in one of the most ethnically diverse countries in the world, this is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the richness around us.
 

For this edition, we will explore the culture of Iraq through Kabab Erbil Iraqi Restaurant, located in Corniche, Abu Dhabi. Founded in 2003 by Mr. Azad Omar, originally from Kurdistan, Iraq, the restaurant reflects a culinary journey that began in Kirkuk with a homemade touch—one that has since earned widespread appreciation.
 

The cost of the event is AED 190 per person. It includes a selection of dishes to share: 5 appetizers and 3 signature main dishes, as well as water and laban.
 

If you would like to attend, please register as soon as possible using this payment link:

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Rizwan Tufail or Dilyana Karadzhova via WhatsApp.

We look forward to seeing you on 22 January!
