CENTCOM COALITION FESTIVAL

[CENTCOM]

Greetings all,

Wanted to share some of the pictures I took from this awesome event that happens every year. Our coalition partners showcased their respective country's culture and cuisine with the rest of the military and civilian personnel at CENTCOM Headquarters. And of course, I was first in line for Haleem.

Yes, there was Biryani too, but I have an unhealthy obsession with Haleem.

Do you add lemon, fried onion rings and ginger dashes?

What kinda meat do you like in your Haleem?

Dude, haleem can not be called haleem without all those goodies!

Let the guy have haleem in peace!

No! don't do that. It has to be with the works.

agree @Hyperion.

@Horus I think red-meat Haleem is better than chicken Haleem(someone made me try it once), but can't have a haleem without ginger and lemon(Good for digestion). Just IMO.

@Irfan Baloch - That's cool. I can almost see a Hanger in the background of your Avatar.

@SipahSalar - Don't have the exact number but there were a third of the number of countries compared to last year.

@everyone - Thanks for all your responses, almost writing this with a heavy heart, condolences to the families of the victims in today's terrorist attack on Army Public School.
