KARACHI, Pakistan (AA) – Top Pakistani government officials and military officers, scholars, and educators gathered at the Turkish Consulate in the port city of Karachi on Sunday to celebrate World Breakfast Day.

The event, traditionally observed in May at Turkish diplomatic missions across the globe, was delayed this year due to the nation’s just-concluded presidential and parliamentary elections.

The gathering featured traditional Turkish cuisine such as su boregi (pastry with feta cheese filling), sucuk yumurta (eggs and sausage), salami, menemen (scrambled eggs with cheese and paneer), simit (sesame bread rings), and pogaca (buns stuffed with cheese and paneer) along with Turkish tea offered to the guests.

Among the attendees were Dr. Azra Pechuhu, health minister for the southern Sindh province (with the capital Karachi), along with Sindh Chief Secretary Sohail Rajput, Pakistan Navy Commander Karachi Rear Adm. Muhammad Saleem, Commissioner of Karachi Muhammad Iqbal Memon, Karachi Police Chief Javed Alam Odho, Karachi Metropolitan Corporation administrator Saif-ur- Rehman, Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Ministerial Standing Committee on Scientific and Technological Cooperation Coordinator General Muhammad Iqbal Choudhary, Mohammad Ali Jinnah University Vice Chancellor Zubair Shaikh, and Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA) Karachi Coordinator Halil Ibrahim Basaran.

Addressing the gathering, Turkish Consul General Cemal Sangu said that the idea behind the annual event is not only to bring the people of the two brotherly countries together but to introduce Turkish tastes to the locals as well.
