MULTAN:
‘Sabun Wali Gali’ is known for its mouth-watering items for food lovers who visit the densely populated area of the old Multan city at Haram Gate to relish a variety of dishes for breakfast and lunch.
Mutton Korma, nihari, trotters, brain, desi chicken, halwa puri, kulchey, lassi, kheer and several other food items are available in the street.
On weekends, people from different areas of the city visit the eateries to take away special breakfast for their families and friends.
“I have been running a shop for the last 15 years in Sabun Wali Gali. We have permanent customers. Residents of the Gali love to eat these desi dishes. Our rates are also very reasonable, “said M Asif who was serving customers on Sunday.
He said he never compromised on the quality of food, which is very popular among foodies. The breakfast is very ‘heavy’ and that is why the customers prefer it on weekends, he said and added that these items are much better than fast and junk food which is preferred by youths these days. “Our youth do not know the dietary value of desi food dishes,” he lamented.
Dr Muhammad Tariq, head of the Chemistry Department in Government Postgraduate Civil Lines College, said his family relished the dishes in their childhood but also love to eat.
