Three Habibis: Dine Out Festival Takeover
A Rumi Dinner at Bar Idda
A return to where it all began
This year, Rumi turns 20.
To celebrate, we’re returning to our very first home on Lygon Street — the place where we opened our doors, built a restaurant with the help of my family, and began sharing our story of the borderless Middle East with Melbourne.
Now home to our dear friends at Bar Idda, this special corner of the Inner North continues to represent everything we believe in: generous food, culture, community and gathering around the table.
Join us for two special evenings as we revisit the dishes, stories and memories that have shaped Rumi over the past two decades.
August 11th & 12th
Dinner from 5.30pm
132 Lygon St
$130pp — shared feast, drinks available on the night
Tickets are extremely limited.

Rumi For Gaza: Melbourne Food and Wine
This March, Rumi presents a dinner at its events space on Nicholson Street, East Brunswick in support of Doctors Without Borders, in a night of food and community. The kitchen will serve a set menu built around Palestinian classics moving from snacks and starters to generous mains and sides, finishing with Rumi's delicious kunefe.
A donation of $30 from every ticket will go directly to Doctors Without Borders.
