Pakistani street food delights diplomats at UN

Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Maleeha Lodhi organised a 'food street event' at the UN to demonstrate the country's cuisine to the world.

Envoys from many countries, including UN officials and diplomats, thronged the Pakistan food stall which was adorned by Truck Art to reflect the theme of Pakistani street food.
