Nadeem Butt Karahi- The orginal Butt Karahi of Lahore. This place is kind of confusing with competitors lining the streets around the shop. Make sure to just go to the biggest location. You can have your choice of Mutton or Rooster. For me it is all about the Mutton here. The combination of spices with the reduced down sauce and monthly allowance of Ghee and Butter man this an irresistible dish.

Regal Benazir Dahi Bhallay- A shop that has been serving up Dahi Chaat for 60 years. You should do it how the owner showed me, start with the savory and then add the fruit chaat to get a double chaat snack attack.

Sweet Shop- These people knew I couldn't resist a sweet treat. What looked to be an old school shop the way they had their sweets displayed. The signature was the patisa and something I would have to recommend. Like flakey and glass like shattering sugar mixed with chickpea flour and ghee.
Address: Right inside Mochi Gate.
Open: Daily
Saeen Shahi Kabab- A spot older than Pakistan. 125 years going in what I do believe is the original location. When you eat here you feel like you are taking a bite of history. A spongey, juicy, meaty bite of history.

Doohd Soda- Cooked milk chilled with soda. Something about this drink hits the spot. Not to mention the pint sized mugs. This is a spot worth coming to a few times while in Lahore. Plus, it's. nice to get here and support the young kids working so hard to make a living.
