Indian Air Force marks 93rd anniversary, dinner menu with a twist goes viral, HINT: Pakistan
The menu, photographed Wednesday evening and shared widely on social media, appears to be from one of the Air Force Day events held at an unspecified location.
The dinner menu served during the 93rd anniversary celebrations of the Indian Air Force went viral not for its taste but for its message. Photos of the menu shared widely on social media Wednesday evening are believed to be from one of the Air Force Day events held at an undisclosed location.
Each dish on the menu is named after a city or district linked to Operation Sindoor, the May 7 airstrike that hit nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir following the Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir.
The creative menu mixed flavors with subtle symbolism. The main course included dishes like Rawalpindi Chicken Tikka Masala, Rafiqui Rhara Mutton, Bholari Paneer Methi Malai, Sukkur Sham Savera Kofta, Sargodha Dal Makhani, Jacobabad Mewa Pulao and Bahawalpur Naan. For dessert, guests enjoyed Balakot Tiramisu, Muzaffarabad Kulfi Faluda and Muridke Meetha Pan.
Each of these Pakistani cities has a historical connection with India’s military operations. These were among the objectives of the 2019 Operation Bandar and Operation Sindoor, which were launched in response to cross-border terrorist attacks earlier this year.
