Dear diary,
Haiqah Javaid, student of Class III- C (Beaconhouse School
System , Primary 1, PECHS, Karachi) brought me at her house on Monday 28th
January 2013. She has a lovely house and she keeps it clean. She took me to the
food street in the evening. We wanted to have some traditional food. She showed
me how “Kata Kat’’ is made. A man
was making this dish on a Big Tawa and the music produced
while he was making Kata Kat was awesome. It seems like a musical instrument, a
big tawa and two sharp edged iron spatulas, to mix and cut all vegetables and
liver etc. It was fun to see it.
Then Haiqah showed me how “Tikka Botis” are made. Small pieces of chicken were Barbequed on
the coal. The flavor due to it was delicious. Tikka boti were really spicy. Next
to it were a big pan with a lot of oil in it and a man was making parattas in
it. Wow!
Later, Haiqah took me to the “Paan
shop” as well and we enjoyed the sweet paan. Paan was actually a betel leaf
with betel nut and coconut and other sweet things in it. It was tasty. Then we
went to the “Dry Fruit” shop. The
shopkeeper had kept all the dry fruits very neatly on a small cart. It was fun
being there. We had a short “Rickshaw” ride as well. Rickshaw is
a public transport with three wheels used by people in Pakistan. We had loads
of fun. It was nice being with Haiqah. She took good care of me.
From,
Kanga.

Wow! The food you have in Pakistan looks extreamly tasty! Are they traditional foods? Our food is different over in Australia. I bet kanga liked going to the food street.In australia we have meat pies, pavlova, and barbeques. There is plenty more. On a barbeque you cook meat, potatoes and even some onion!
Thank you for sharing these wonderful pictures and information!

I Australia we have food courts which is a giant area with food stalls where you go up to a stall and pick what you want to eat from that stall, there are lots of foods like hot chips, burgers, sushi, chicken, drinks, noodles, sandwitches and salads.
Thank you for sharing the information about the food in your country. And one more thing, those are not BIG CAKES, they are actually dry fruits in big plastic bags. People sell the dry fruits on carts so it is easy for them to keep dry fruits on it, in an organised way.
Thank you once again. Do visit Pakistan to enjoy our delicious food.
From, HAIQAH
Haiqah that was really nice. :-]
