Band Palastar dhaaba ( بن پلستر  )

Tired at work and fed-up of the so called “cyber-war”, it was a time for some fun. Good food helps but no fancy restaurant is my preference most of the times.
Lets explore dhaaba-delights of Lahore. Band Palastar ( بن پلستر  ) coming your way!
I Googled to see if there is anything about Band Palastar available online but closed down Google with disappointment. How can Lahori bloggers miss such cheap and delicious desi burger ? (No, its not really a burger, continue reading).
One of the most densely populated areas of Lahore, Sanda Road is home to …

Askari Under-garments

I happened to visit Rawalpindi with friends a couple of days back. This was my first visit or stay-in, to be precise, to the garrison city. Earlier, I had only passed through the city on my way to Taxila a few years back and then during the recent Long March.
Interesting and shocking observation: No matter where you are in the city and whatever the time be, there would be one thing which I am sure you will be able to see in the reach of your eyes, the word Askari …

Going beyond Ravi

I follow the principle of ‘no work in Ramazan’ and I can recall I have been following this for years and years. I just can’t work when I am hungry. My colleagues would well understand this for they know my drawers at work serve as a tuck-shop when the cafeteria in office is out of stock For this reason and for my bad tamper and mood swings, I have not been blogging for a few days. Today, bored at work, I was looking at the photos …

one-night-trip to Gujranwala

Dark night, heavy rain, annoying horns, traffic jam – what a combination ! I was stuck on Multan Road when I called up a few friends, we had a short conference call and we were ready with yet another hangout plan. It was a weekend and I was returning back home from work, looking forward to such a plan like every other day. This one was real quick -  we just decided in in a couple of minutes and I was now to pick them up rather than going back …

Dine-out in the red-light area of Lahore

Wrong guess. It’s not about Cuckoo’s – continue reading!
I have this bad habit of roaming around the city with friends on the weekends and like all Lahoris, dining out in the end with no good entertainment options available. Being fed up of the exquisite restaurants, all stereo-typed to the same M.M.Alam road restaurants; I wanted to try something different. Something traditional at a non-fancy place. One reason for this was the FASTRising’s in-house resolution which states “visit to fancy, expensive restaurants will be limited and local, traditional places would be …

Surreal moment indeed for those activists of FASTRising and YPL who were baton charged at this very place back in February, 2008 when they were trying to cross the barriers erected by the empire. A historic moment indeed for all of us to walk on a road where one of the most glorious chapter of peaceful resistance has been written by lawyers and students of Islamabad.

An unforgettable moment for all members of our delegation from FASTRising, YPL, SAC Lahore who met the real CJ of Paklistan, the honorable Iftikhar Chaudhary, …
