昨日、ヤク切れで絶不調再びだった時、居候先家族が「ハンバガ持ち帰りで買ってくけどいる?」というので乗っかったら買ってきてくれたのがこの黒黒としたblack burgerだった。
このStreet Burgerって店は欧米風のチャラいバーガー屋をイスラマに持ち込んだ初の店だとか。
十年くらい前で1食1500Rsしたっていうからとんでもない高級料理だわ。
ちなみにイスラマやイスラマの都会っ子を指すあだ名(?)がバーガー(計画都市で歴史もなく、他地域みたいに地場の名物もなくて、カネモチが多いから、欧米かぶれも多い、的な)なのだけど、その形容に違わないくらいチャラいバーガー屋は多い。
@DigiVoyager Oh, this is pretty interesting article from the various perspectives.
btw, burger, as well as biryani, will isb never beat to karachi...? 🤔😆
Last month when I visited Peshawar, I actually amazed there's also bunch of burger type restaurant. I'm rather the type of person being happy enough to roaming around Kissa Khawani though, the local host at that time was exactly KP burgers, so they preferred to take me to the burger side's over and over... 🙄
Well, it's also interesting to know another side of Peshawar tho.
Islamabad will always remain a borrower of other cities cultures, its perennial dilemma, as it were.
The burger side of Peshawar is definitely boring, we do not really have many decent joints either maybe Jans. So many are just relying on their name or marketing on social media. Chief, a famous dating spot of the 90s. used to be good, still can be sometimes.
Most of my colleagues would surely class in the burger category, it is yet another reason we find one another so odd.
@browneyes The burger phenomenon started in Karachi with Mr. Burger, the history is quite interesting. Locally, Islamabadi "burgers" (the people) are viewed as far worse than the ones in Karachi. Now, it has spread all over Pakistan, we have people that act like burgers even here in Peshawar.
