A celebration of Turkish cuisine and friendship took place in Karachi on Sunday as the Turkish Consulate hosted a World Breakfast Day event, sharing traditional flavours with a distinguished Pakistani audience.
Held annually on the first Sunday of June, World Breakfast Day is recognised by UNESCO and aims to promote Türkiye’s breakfast culture across the globe.
The event brought together Pakistani officials, military officers, scholars and business leaders inside the consulate building—a fusion of Turkish and local design—where a spread of traditional Turkish dishes was presented.
Guests enjoyed a rich array of favourites, including su boregi, sucuklu yumurta, menemen, simit, pogaca, and beyaz peynir, alongside Turkish tea and mixed nuts.
Chief Minister of Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah, who attended as the event’s chief guest, praised the tradition for introducing millions around the world, including himself, to Türkiye’s beloved breakfast heritage.
Shah also thanked Ankara for its support during Pakistan’s recent military standoff with India, highlighting the enduring partnership between the two countries.
Speaking at the event, Turkish Consul General Cemal Sangu emphasised that Türkiye and Pakistan have stood by each other during regional challenges and natural disasters.
He said the World Breakfast Day initiative serves to deepen the cultural ties between the “two brotherly nations” and allow locals to experience the essence of Turkish hospitality.
