Food of Peshawar

Peshawar is the oldest and largest city of Khyber pakhtukhwa. For this city we have a negative image due to the environment which we had seen on the news. But we sometimes forget that everything does not have a single aspect. Rather than its negative aspects this city is also the main attraction for tourists. University town, old town and British cantonment are the areas which are mostly attracted by the visitors. I individually found it the best when compared to other cities by means of heritage, money value in shopping, security and traditions. The language of hospitality and love has spoken by the naïve people and always willing to help the visitors.

Historical Attractions of Peshawar:
If you are going to visit this beautiful city here I am going to elaborate some places which you should never missed:

  • Islamia College
  • Bala Hisar Fort
  • Mahabat Khan Mosque
  • Cunningham Clock tower
  • Peshawar Museum
  • Khyber Pass

Food Street Peshawar:
When we visit this amazing city it is not possible that we forget the food street. Meat is the most important part of Peshawari food which is cooked in the form of “karhai”, “dumpukht” and “tikka”. Lamb meat is also liked by the people there. The most important thing about this street that they cook food in your presence according to your ordered variety and quantity. Fried Fish, a rice based dish with meat and raisins, chapli kebab and kabuli pulao are their traditional recepies. Cafes, multi-cuisine, and Chinese eatery is also opened up with growing times. As this city is just full of amazing traditional food, it’s very difficult to select the best spot. Below I am going to enlist some famous restaurants of the city:

The people of this city are very hospitable which makes you want to visit it again and again. Some basic features of this city are described below: Location & Population: Near the historic Khyber Pass this city is located in a valley, near to the border with Afghanistan. It has the population about 1,218,773 making it the largest city of Khyber pakhtunkhwa. This city was the capital of Durrani Empire and also served as the capital for Kushan Empire. It was known for its huge 16 gates known as Reti, Kachehri, Asamai, Bajouri, Dabgari, Ramdas, Hashtnagri, Beriskian, Sard Chah, Sirki, Kohati, Rampura Gate, Yakka Thoot, Ganj, Kabuli Lahori. There are antique places like Fort Bala Hisar, Gor Khatri, Namak Mandi, Qisa khuwani bazaar that must not be neglected as well as some Qisa khuwani bazaar, up-to-date buildings. Language & Religion: As this is the sixth largest city of Pakistan. The native language spoken in this beautiful city is named as “Pashto”. Urdu and Hindko is also spoken in this city. Mostly the population of this city is Muslims in 1998 census which make 98.5% of the city’s population. About 70,000 members of Ahmadiyya Muslim community while the Christians make up the second largest religious group live in this town. Famous Productions: This city is including in one of the most former cities on earth. Its production of handicrafts, silks, footwear, cotton, textile etc offer an established economy. Traditional Carpets is one of the biggest expots of the country at present. This city is famous for its “bara” markets and the largest variability of goods are available at reasonable prices that one can’t imagine.                                                                                                                Food Courts: When we are talking about this beautiful city how we can forget about its food courts. Rashakai a place famous for cloth market. You can please your sense of taste after shopping with amazing “charsi tikka” at just around the corner. Some other unforgettable peshawari foods are “chappal kababs” and “namkeen gosht” for the guests. Now fast food exits like Pizza hut, Chief Burger, KFC etc are also in this city other than its conventional foods. Separate Place for gatherings: As the people here are very conventional in terms of clothing due to which we see chaddars, abayas and shuttlecock burkas in and around the city. They didn’t like anybody face their women’s instead of other cities in Pakistan. So they have a detached place named as “hujra” where the men would pleat, just like a living room where the females would not come in front of male visitants. Is Peshawar Safe? Due to kidnappings and ransom cases and the bombings, this town is not secure like other towns of our country. Markets shutdown early along with people instructed to come at home early and the roads less congested early in the evening. That is why having guns at home is common but it again depends on the area.                                             University of Peshawar: This is the public research university situated in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. This university is also including in one of the oldest universities in Pakistan. The undergraduate, doctoral and post-graduate programs are offered by this university which was founded in 1950. Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa still need some work for education and job opportunities for inhabitants. Because students after college level are compelled to go to other cities like Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad for better education.
