13 of the Most Delicious Desi Food Items From Lahore that You Probably Don’t Know About

We hear a lot about the growing trend of “fine dining” restaurants or the exquisite cuisine from all over the world being offered in Lahore. Maybe the transformation of yet another rooftop into an overly priced establishment with shining chinaware has caught your fancy?

What we seem to forget in all this is the true essence of Lahore which lies in the masalas and skills of true “Lahori” chefs. Before I go any further though I caution you that none of these places have been Ayesha certified, and in all likelihood it may give you a tiny stomach ache or a gaseous outburst but sometimes life is more than a runny tummy. Sometimes it’s just about enjoying a cold glass of peray wali lassi!

Is that why every fuckin food here is described as "desi"? If somebody labelled it as 'Pakistani' I would call that progress. Every single country calls their food by their name. India/Indian, Ireland/Irish, Afghanistan/Afghan, Syria/Syrian. But Pakistani's are so ashamed that they will hide behind other synonyms such as 'desi' or 'apna' or 'Asian' or even 'Indian' etc

My post 'Indian' was intended to take a dig at that habit ....

Ps.Maybe admins need to change this forum name to 'desi defence'?

Trotters. Love it !

Let it go big bro.

It's too deep, this stump of that still patent, still pulsing unblical cord.

Why sitting in UK and getting hot under the collar?

What will be will be in this undifferentiated brown soup.

Cheers, Doc

Wow.

You don't recognize kapooray (testicles) and paye (trotters)?

The second is soul food for me.

With chaura (white beans). Finger sticky steaming hot. And fresh broom to dip in. With sarko (vinegar) spring onion kachoobar on the side.

Cheers, Doc
