Pakistan’s biggest successful eat festival “Islamabad Eat” was celebrated second time to Islamabad town on the 23rd – 25th November 2018 at Jinnah Convention Center.
Having float immense achievement a year ago, the celebration was significantly greater and better. Much the same as a year ago.
Islooites managed to kill the boredom by organizing an eventful weekend at the Convention Centre by the name of Islamabad Eat.
It’s being done on the likes of Karachi Eat which has been a huge success in the port city for the last two-three years.
Bilal who has been managing a tea stall by the name of Chai Junction.His little tea shop is located in Bahria Town, Rawalpindi so he wanted to make a mark in the Islamabad food scene. He told us that The organisers have charged Rs15000 per stall fee for three days and only yesterday I started at 5pm and my sale was Rs30,000, he informed joyfully.
There were more than 25-30 stalls in all and a mix of homemade kitchens, kiosks, five-star hotels and bakery showcase. There was something to eat for everyone. Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Dosas, BBQ, Halwa Puri, stall of homemade pasta, food from Hunza, Maki and Saag, smoothies, Italian, burgers so on and so forth.
The food was reasonably priced and nothing was over a price tag if Rs300 on most of the stalls we went to. The arrangement at the venue was superb. There were round tables, neat and clean table tops and jumping castle for kids, art exhibition by Nomad Gallery for art lovers.
Chattha’s was the other stall where one could spot a beeline. Maki Roti and Saag with the Desi Makhan topping, it was lethal.
Islamabad Eat has all the potential to grow every year and bring the food scene of the capital a must visit the event.
