Tagouri's guests broke fast in an intimate Ramadan gathering prepared by Syrian chef Diaa Alhanoun.
Noor Tagouri left the night of April 13 buzzing. For the third year in a row, her media production company, At Your Service, and family-owned company Ahmad Tea had hosted an iftar dinner party, commemorating the meal in which Muslims break fast during Ramadan. This year, 35 guests gathered at Chelsea's Eat Offbeat, an immigrant and refugee-run restaurant boasting a charming industrial space with exposed brick, mustard yellow ironwork, and hanging rattan lamp shades and dried flowers.
Chef Diaa Alhanoun, Eat Offbeat team, Eat Offbeat cofounder and CEO Manal Kahi, iftar hosts Shadi Ashfar of Ahmad Tea USA and AYS cofounder Noor Tagouri.Shaughn Cooper, the goals of this year's event had shifted towards unmasking spirituality, the subject of her latest project.
She added, "It just felt really different and really wholesome, and that's what we tried to do. I really believe that comes from getting people out of their comfort zones, but in a place where there is this sense of trust."
