As Ramadan 2024 approaches, Muslims around the world are preparing themselves to observe one of the five pillars of Islam – the Ramadan fast. During the holy month, Muslims abstain from food and drink from dawn until dusk. To break the fast at sunset, Muslims have Iftar, which is the meal that marks the end of the daily fast during Ramadan.

Iftar buffets are a popular tradition during the month of Ramadan, and many restaurants and hotels in Pakistan offer a variety of dishes to satisfy your cravings. While the list for 2024 is not yet available, you can still explore some options for Iftar buffets in several cities in Pakistan. Below are some recommendations.
