British High Commissioner to Pakistan, Dr Christian Turner has shared that he is a huge fan of Karachi Biryani and Lahori food. He expressed his love for Pakistan’s foods and cities in Urdu that is quite impressive and interesting.
In an interview with Hamid Mir, Dr Turner said, “Well, I should say, first of all, Pakistan bohat khoobsurat hai, Meri Urdu kharab hai. Thodi jaanta hun.”
Turner agreed with the old saying “Lahore Lahore Hai (Lahore is Lahore)” and said that all he had done for three days in Lahore was eat. The representative revealed he was fond of Karachi’s biryani. He said it was “Bohat mazedaar (very delicious)”.

Dr Turner has also documented, in detail, his experiences in Pakistan on his social media.
“Jinnay Lahore nahi wekh-e-ya aou jamiya nahi” reminds me of Samuel Johnson’s “if you are tired of London…”. Lahore, consider me born! (Oh, & did I mention the food?) #GettingtoKnow?? pic.twitter.com/bSRoWiLi0v
