What is the food like? Should I eat only at hotels?

Pakistan offers a rich variety of local and continental food. In the cities you have a good choice, besides the hotels there are some excellent restaurants catering to a variety of tastes. Popular with the locals are meat, fish and vegetable curries along with rice pulao and lentils. Barbecued and grilled meat is common in all the four provinces but traditionally done in different ways. Northern Pakistan’s food is quite different with less spices, if you get invited into any home you will definitely taste something different to what you have in the bazaars or hotel restaurants.
