Beware: This post is known to have caused many foodgasms.
Lahore is the unofficial food capital of Pakistan, regardless of what the Karachi walay say (sorry not sorry). Being the zinda dillaan da shehr, the city quite literally never sleeps because they’re basically just stuffing their faces with yummy food. And by yummy we mean your-mouth-is-on-fire-with-burst-of-flavor kinda yummy.
We bring to you the best of the best from your favorite city, with just enough information to keep you wanting more:
(And if you want all of them together, come eat with us at the Hungerist)

Lily’s Khow Suey
Khaosey by Lily’s Home Cooked Meals is a treasure like no other, something that even Karachi walas can vouch for. The authentic recipe fused with the homey goodness is perfect for aaj kal ka mausam.

What’a Paratha
The only ammi-certified paratha place in Lahore – doing all the trick your mum can do and more. Think much more variety than the holy trinity: chicken, cheese and chocolate.

Burger Hub
Just going to leave this here to tease your tastebuds. Look at that beef cooked to perfection, smothered in sauce and rolled up in pocked of cheese in between soft sesame bun. Brb, salivating.

Karachi Kanteen
Well, oh well. Without getting into the with-or-without-aaloo saga, here’s some lip smacking biryani, only for you. And not just that, there’s a whole assortment of bun kebabs and chaats, too.

Kabuli Dera
Raisins and nuts and rice and dry fruit and that sweetened taste of carrots in between biting on almonds. That’s one helluva journey. Finish it up with a vat of ka’va cuz God knows, you need it.

Nisa Sultan
Turkish cuisine at it’s finest, smack in the heart of Lahore. Nisa Sultan offers a range of Turkish ‘delights’ like doner kebabs, shawarmas, platters, hummus and that coconut sweet treat you’re soon going to be a big fan of!

Mocca
Coffee, dessert, great food and even better company; Mocca is the only coffeeshop in Lahore than not only serves great food but even better ambience. Be it work or socializing. Or both. Oh, and did we mention macaroons?
