Before the Raya festivities begins, comes Ramadan (ninth month of the Islamic calendar) which is the Islamic month of fasting whereby participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking and sexual activites from dawn until sunset. Families will gather to eat in the early morning before starting their fast and beginning their day and then gather together to break fast in the evening.

In conjuction with the holy month of Ramadan, Eccucion’s culinary team has prepared a special menu of exceptional Malay cuisine to close your evenings during the month of Ramadan with over fifty (50) buffet items that changes daily ranging from popular Malaysian dishes of various States and home-cooked “kampung” dishes.
