We are excited to welcome you to a very special Ruby's Kitchen brunch event on Sunday, May 29, 12pm – 3pm.
The event will be a held at a different location from our usual, but still in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, at the corner of Roebling and North 6th Streets. We will email you the address after you register.
The Haleem Bar will have a simpler menu than our brunch tasting menus. Instead of the whole group sitting around the table for a meal, this will be an indoor/outdoor picnic, with self-serve stations for the various menu items and informal seating provided indoors and outdoors.
The pricing is also different — there is a $20 per person suggested contribution to help us cover costs, payable via Venmo to @rubyskitchen. Regardless of whether you can pay that amount, we do ask for an RSVP so we can accurately estimate how much food to prepare.
may 29 menu
Iced Rose Lassi
A light, refreshing, aromatic blended drink with yogurt, water, Jam-e-shirin rose syrup, and a pinch of sugar and salt.
Papri Chaat
A savory South Asian snack served as an appetizer at roadside stalls in India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh. Savory chaat is a medley of potato, chickpeas, yogurt, tangy-salty spices, sour Indian chili, and tamarind, and is garnished with fresh green coriander leaves and sliced onion. Served as an hors d'oeuvre on fresh, crispy papri crackers.
Hyderabadi Haleem w/ Mutton*
Originating from the 10th century Baghdadi dish Harees, Haleem was evolved into the modern-day mega canonical dish in the Indian city of Hyderabad. It is a flavorful stew featuring wheat, barley, lentils, and meat, and is garnished with lime, ginger, and fried onion.
* Vegetarian option with Beyond Sausage available upon request.
Khubani ka Meetha
A layered dessert comprising pureed dried apricots, custard, whipped cream, almonds and pistachios that lends a cooling festivity to a warm holiday meal.
Chai
Pakistani black tea with milk (lactose-free), served hot.
The brunch is a great opportunity to try out a new cuisine and engage in conversation with fellow New Yorkers. It is a shared community experience whether you attend on your own or with friends—we will be sure to introduce everyone to each other and to facilitate a conversation.
Please share with your friends, and we hope to see you there!
