Rohingya Canadian Community at BC Halal Food Fest
It was truly an honour to have been chosen to participate in the BC Halal Food Fest, one of the largest and most prestigious events in beautiful British Columbia. This event was not just about food and festivities, it was also a platform for the Rohingya Canadian Community to showcase authentic Rohingya cuisine, culture and heritage. It was an opportunity to share with others about our traditions, customs, and to raise awareness about the struggles and persecution faced by the Rohingya people in Myanmar.
Authentic Rohingya Cuisine
Our dedication as vendors at the BC Halal Food Fest was truly inspiring, and we're thrilled that our authentic Rohingya cuisine was so well-received by attendees. We are proud to share our vibrant flavors and culture with others, and we hope to continue to do so in the future.
Thank you to every member of the Rohingya Canadian Community who worked tirelessly to showcase our cuisine and culture. Your hard work and passion are truly appreciated.
