On the occasion of Turkish Cuisine Week, Turkish Ambassador to Bangladesh Ramis Şen on Sunday hosted a dinner for food tasting with the participation of Chefs and General Managers of well-known hotels in Dhaka.
The rich Turkish cuisine shaped by millennia of culture, tradition, social heritage, and deep-rooted experience continues to share its unique journey in the world.
Turkish Cuisine Week is celebrated each year from May 21 to 27, both in Türkiye and around the globe, under the auspices of Emine Erdoğan, First Lady of the Republic of Türkiye.
This year's Turkish Cuisine Week theme, "The Heritage Table," highlights the stories, memories, culture, traditions as well as heritage embedded in a shared culinary heritage.
It encourages food lovers to remember that it's not only the unique flavours we taste that matter but also the shared heritage on our tables.
The week will be celebrated across Türkiye and at Turkish diplomatic missions and cultural centres worldwide.
This year's theme presents Turkish cuisine not just as a set of dishes but as a vibrant, shared cultural heritage developed over centuries through migration, rituals, collective effort, and longstanding traditions at the table.
