Dawat Yan Banquet is proud to present Dawat-e-Kashmiri Chai, a collaboration between Pakistani community elder, Shahina Khan and her beloved niece and banquet co-host, Mariam Magsi. Shahina and Mariam get together in Scarborough, the bustling heart of the Greater Toronto Area. A banquet feast featuring Kashmiri Chai (aka Sabaz Chai and Noon Chai) is created around the theme of pink. The banquet looks strikingly similar to the pink and green landscapes of Kashmir. Kashmiri Chai can be enjoyed sweet or salty. For this particular banquet feast, Shahina prepares a sweet version of the beloved Chai. Please note, that when recalling an intergenerational narrative around the history of this Chai, the gender neutral term "they" is used.
