There’s a new reason to head to DIFC after hours — and it’s not just for fine dining or after-work drinks. Daftar, the nostalgic Indian restaurant known for its soulful flavours and old-school charm, has officially become the first Indian spot in DIFC to launch comedy nights every alternate Wednesday.
Titled Mid-Week Comedy Nights at Daftar, this new series is bringing together comedians from across nationalities who live, work, and joke in Dubai. It’s community-driven, culturally rich, and packed with punchlines that every Dubai resident can relate to — because nothing connects people quite like good food, favourite bubbles, and laughter.
The debut night was a sold-out success, drawing in a crowd of corporate professionals, creatives, and comedy lovers from all backgrounds. The vibe? Laid-back, inclusive, and buzzing with energy, as guests tucked into Daftar’s bestselling dishes while enjoying stand-up acts that hit close to home.
The next show with Flamingo Live is all set for Wednesday, April 30th, at 8:30 PM, and trust us — you’ll want to book early.
While the comedians deliver the laughs, Daftar delivers flavour bombs with fan-favourite plates like Jhol Momos, Mushroom Galouti, Cajun Chicken Tikka, Awadhi Biryani, Rogan Josh, and Orange Quinoa Kheer — all crafted to evoke comfort with a touch of creativity.
