On June 19, from 14:00 to 17:00, the House of Russian Cuisine will host Kurban Bayram (Eid al-Adha), an important Muslim holiday marking the end of the pilgrimage to holy sites. On this day, teams from the North Caucasus regions of Russia — the Dagestan cuisine network "Dagestanskaya Lavka" ("Dagestan Shop") and the Chechen Republic project "DAAR" — will treat guests to national dishes and sweets.

 Chefs from "Dagestanskaya Lavka" will conduct a masterclass on preparing Lak khinkal with meat. Men will cook lamb, while women will prepare dough dumplings. All participants will have the opportunity to taste this festive dish. The sweet table will be set by the Chechen cuisine project "DAAR" with halva, sherbet and seasonal fruits as festive desserts!

Attending the Kurban Bayram celebration is an opportunity to learn about the culinary and cultural traditions followed by 21 million Muslims in Russia. It also provides a warm family celebration atmosphere where participants prepare hearty and aromatic meat dishes and beloved sweets together.

Since its opening, more than 1 million people have visited the House of Russian Cuisine, and educational festivals have become a key feature of the new pavilion's work.

"In the first five months of operation, the new pavilion at VDNH, the House of Russian Cuisine, has become a popular tourist attraction and, without exaggeration, a cultural and gastronomic center in the capital of Russia. The unique composition of participants creates an informal atmosphere in our House and represents a small model of the multinational, multi-confessional Russian society. On June 19, I invite everyone to join the bright Muslim holiday of Kurban Bayram," said Ekaterina Shapovalova, curator of the House of Russian Cuisine, author, and head of the all-Russian project "Gastronomic Map of Russia."
