birthday feast

Yearly meal celebration

A birthday feast is a celebratory meal held in honor of someone's birthday, typically more elaborate than everyday dining.

The word feast suggests abundance—multiple courses, special dishes, or foods the birthday person especially loves.

We prepared a birthday feast with all her favorites.

The occasion may be intimate or involve many guests.
