Video not available.

I don't know about what was show in the video but I usually eat anda, paratha and chai in breakfast.

And Street food are not that expensive, in about 150RS you can get couple of parathas channay(chickpeas)/ omelette and a cup of tea. Throw in halwa puri if that's what you like
This video is more realistic representation of Rawalpindi/ Islamabad and northern Pakistan

I only drink coffee in the morning. Simple and easy breakfast.

This is more of a weekend kind of nashta
Everyday nashta is more like paratha chai and anda or chanay

You should try Nihari. Chunks of beef floating in oil and fat. Will put some hair on your chest.

The nihari, haleem, halwa puri etc are a heavier breakfast, typically for days off or holidays.

Normally breakfast in Pakistan is roti/parantha with eggs maybe, or even last nights curry. Tea/Milk of course is standard.

I live in the UK and don't have a physical job, so i limit my breakfast to a couple of eggs and a cup of tea. On occassion i will have fried toast too, or parantha/daal, halwa puri, but this is for the weekend.

I got to be honest though - if i lived in Pakistan and these heavy breakfasts were easily available every day, i'd be eating them several times a week i reckon.

Cultural practice of heavy eating is common in Punjab, so can't call it as "Pakistani" thing more of a Punjab phenomen
And specifically Centeral Punjab (Gujaranwala in the video is there)

But saying all that it's more of a weekend thing, anda paratha or any kind of parahata for weekdays

guest came from punjab took them to a buffet dinner. The supervisor (in punjabi) jokingly asked if he could take their pictures to be posted outside the restaurant for best eaters award as they requested mutton chops too many times.

Typical weekday breakfast is some form of eggs with some form of flour or wheat based carbs.
Many urban and/or middle class kids(and many adults) also consume a lot of cereal.
What you posted is Saturday or Sunday brunch. If this was consumed daily the already poor productivity of Pakistanis would be negligible as they would snooze, burp and pass gas until 3pm after having this in the morning.
