Pakistani barbecue is another must-try, with juicy kebabs and spicy tikka demonstrating the country’s grilling traditions. Make sure to try a traditional breakfast, featuring halwa puri – fried flatbread served with a semolina pudding, nihari – a spiced beef stew, and parathas – flaky flatbread.

Islamabad Food Street is a hotspot for even more local foods, but also international cuisine. Be sure to taste Pakistan’s most favoured dish, biryani, which consists of layers of spiced rice and tender meat.
