US Secretary of State John Kerry visited the Dunkin' Donuts store here in the Pakistani capital today to a get a "little slice" of the popular American breakfast snack, and was soon trolling on twitter.
Kerry, who is on a two-day visit to Pakistan for a strategic dialogue, dropped into the eatery early in the morning.
The 71-year American diplomat later tweeted his picture taken at the store in which he is shown dressed in a blue suit with his grey hair combed backwards.
"A little slice of home here in Islamabad at Dunkin' Donuts to start the day," Kerry tweeted. The picture was a hit on the micro blog.
It received some interesting comments, including from state-run Radio Pakistan which said the "US Secretary of State visits a local Bakery before starting the day in Islamabad."
Another tweet said, "Have been told that take a copy of this pic to your nearest Dunkin Donuts and they will pay your US visa."
