Supper Club
In 2022, Sufra started hosting Sufra Supper Clubs to honour the guests on our OpenARMs programme. For each event, we work with a few of the guests to curate a menu, cook the food, arrange the activities and design the night. The Supper Clubs allow the guests to share their culture and the meaning behind the food with Sufra supporters. Click the pictures below to read about each of our events:
