Half of October has passed and the cool breeze and foggy nights are awaiting for Lahoris.

So, without wasting any further time, we are going to dig out some hot spots of famous winter foods in Lahore.

Paaye

Paaye is a favorite choice for dinner in winter. It is a very popular and tasty dish among Lahoris. This dish can be as much spicy as you want. This dish was common in Lahore and later it got fame in the other parts of the country and is now widely eaten.

People enjoy Paaye at breakfast too. Mostly, people who want to eat this dish at breakfast have to go out to the Androon Lahore to eat the best. This dish is especially served at dinner parties in the winter season. If your cook is skilled and has proved his hands-on experience on Paaye, then you are lucky though.

Soup

Sssoooouuuppppp!!!!!! While writing I’ve started to crave for it. Soup is one of the classical famous winter foods of Lahore and Pakistan. The taste of good soup gives you a heavenly pleasure in the foggy nights of Lahore. You can get it at any good cafe or restaurant or can request your mother to make it. Although, the taste you will get from your mother’s hand can’t be found at any restaurant but still you can have a good and delicious soup from outside.

You can either have a basic chicken or vegetable soup or can order for hot and sour soup from your favorite place. Some of the marriage ceremonies also serve soup as a starter in the function. 

Dry Fruits

In the winter season, you will see almost every person having some dry fruits in the jacket pocket and eating it in the cold weather. It has become a tradition to have dry fruits and eat it while walking on the foggy roads or sitting idle on a bench of university, college, or school.

Families enjoy eating dry fruits while watching a drama or movie at night. Friends gather at someplace and eat the dry fruit and recall the best moments of life they have spent.

Dry fruits in Pakistan are easily available. You can have peanuts, cashew, walnuts, resins, almonds, pistachio, and figs. Buy these winter foods now, as their rates will increase as the winter comes.

A special healthy and enjoying treat for our parents and grandparents while sitting in the sunshine of winters and eating oranges. Orange comes in the winter season in Pakistan and is a hot product of the season. People enjoy eating the citric food having vitamins and spend their noontime with their loved ones.

BBQ Parties and Bonfire

The trend of arranging BBQ parties at home has got huge popularity. Whenever guests or friends come, people arrange the bbq parties to spend the quality time while enjoying and eating the best food. BBQ parties are usually arranged at the roofs of houses or on the lawns where the whole family sits and enjoys the delicious food.
