Image description

Mezban (Persian word meaning host) stands for community feast, with a simple menu of rice and beef-curry only. Its a tradition of Chittagong mainly observed by the rich. Chiefly a mezban is held on the birth and death anniversary of the Prophet Muhammad (sm) that is 12th day of the lunar month Rabiul Awal. Besides, mezban is also held on other occasions such as the death anniversary of an individual, birth of a child or inauguration of a new business, or celebration of the entrance to a new residence. Winter is a popular season for organizing mezbans.
