Lahori food from the eyes of a Karachiite

[SQ8]

Point being, you can have great food with 100rs in your pocket anywhere in Karachi.. Lahore is a another matter.
Although Karachi has yet to have any spot where you can find Murgh Chola pre Fajr.. and have it next to the canal while some random rooster makes his announcement.

 

[Burhan Wani]

dude Lahori cuisine is ohsum.

 

[Bilal.]

Please, dont call that Qourma pretending to be a nehari original.

And Biryani?

 

[Burhan Wani]

What about lahori lassi?
I served with jalebi 2 weeks a go at new anarkali

And Biryani?

Biryani has too many iterations.

Yup !

I sympathize with @Oscar his desire to be more Butt like has addled his taste-buds; pataa nahin yeh Bihari Kebab samajhtaa kiyun nahin hai keh asal cheeez asal hotiii hai and no matter whatever he tries to do he can never become a Butt Sahib !

Chapli kebabs at Shah Faisal colony, Karachi....probably the best other than in Peshawar of course.
These days i go there wearing a shalwar kameez though....with a Nokia 3310 type in my hand

If you have never tried that, how can you use the word "better"?

Never tried food from Lahore, so not really going to judge. But being a Karachiite I will be bias and say Karachi has better food varieties then Lahore.

Word of mouth. Lahori food is exaggerated.

Aho, jidan langar da kana kaan wala vi hundaa.

 

[Thorough Pro]

without getting into any affiliatory bias, all foods are good and it's a matter of personal preferences and likes and dislikes.
