That's Great!
@Belayet bhai, can you please initiate the registration process?
@Hasib bhai, can you please collect the contact details of Stat Kabab

But fact is that to confirm the place in Friday.
Every day Iftar time
Star Kabab (Dhanmondi 2) full with lots of people. If we need to confirm

Better to contact Star Kabab authority ASAP & confirm the booking. If not
possible Friday its may Saturday or another day.
