Eid al-Fitr Feasting gets a Rosebank Glow at Hyatt House Rosebank

Eid celebrations are all about togetherness, gratitude and generous tables — and this year, Hyatt House Rosebank is serving exactly that, with a thoughtfully curated Eid al-Fitr buffet menu that invites guests to slow down, gather and indulge.

Set in the heart of Rosebank, this festive spread blends comforting classics with fragrant spices and crowd-pleasing favourites, creating a dining experience that feels both celebratory and wonderfully relaxed.

A Feast That Begins Gently

The buffet opens with refreshing cold beverages, including fruit juice and traditional plain lassi, before moving into a welcoming bread section featuring brioche and ciabatta served with chilled butter — ideal for easing into the meal.

From there, guests can explore a vibrant cold selection. Think creamy hummus and tzatziki, a generous cheese platter, and a colourful build-your-own garden salad station layered with crisp greens, pickles, herbs and flavourful dressings. A beetroot, feta and rocket salad adds a tangy, earthy note to the mix.

Hearty, Soul-Satisfying Mains

The hot selection is where the celebration truly comes alive. Slow-cooked beef nihari, rich with ghee and warming spices, sits alongside a comforting butter chicken and a deeply aromatic lamb dum biryani. Seafood lovers are catered for with lemon butter pan-fried hake, while roasted herb potatoes and vegetables offer a satisfying vegetarian option. Fluffy green pea pulao rice and a selection of condiments — from mango atchar to mint chutney and crisp poppadums — ensure every plate can be customised to taste.

Sweet Endings, Done Right

No Eid feast is complete without dessert, and this menu delivers a nostalgic finale. Guests can enjoy Umm Ali bread pudding with pistachio, traditional carrot halwa, buttery shortbread biscuits and a refreshing fresh fruit salad — the perfect balance of indulgent and light.

More Than a Meal

Priced at R495 per person, the Eid al-Fitr buffet also carries a meaningful touch: 10% of every transaction goes towards supporting the Gift of the Givers Foundation, adding heart to an already generous celebration.

For those looking to mark Eid with good food, good company and a welcoming atmosphere, Hyatt House Rosebank offers a festive table worth gathering around.
