“Food unites us, breaking down barriers and misconceptions. The World Halal Food Festival celebrates this unity by showcasing the rich diversity of Halal cuisine. As Malcolm X said, ‘When people sit down at the table and break bread together, it is not merely food that is shared, but understanding and respect.’ This festival creates a space for everyone to come together, share a meal, and appreciate our shared humanity.
