In this video, Zia Tabarak explores the vibrant and culturally rich neighborhood of Lyari in Karachi, Pakistan. Known as one of Karachi’s oldest settlements, Lyari has a deep-rooted history that reflects a blend of traditional cultures, including the influence of Balochi, Makrani, and Kutchi communities who have contributed to its unique atmosphere. Historically, Lyari has been recognized as a resilient neighborhood, with a strong sense of community and pride, often celebrated for its distinct identity within Karachi. It has long been famous for its street art, music scene, and the welcoming warmth of its people.
One of the standout features of Lyari is its food culture. The area has a vibrant food scene, especially renowned for its street food, which reflects the diverse cultural influences of the neighborhood. Zia starts his culinary journey in the food streets of Agra Taj Colony, one of Lyari’s bustling spots for flavorful street food. Here, he tastes a spicy and unique sandwich known as the "chicken lacha." This sandwich is made with shredded chicken seasoned with rich spices that bring out bold flavors, a real treat for those who enjoy a bit of spice and savory goodness.
Moving on, Zia tries a tawa kaleji, a popular dish in the streets of Karachi. The tawa kaleji here is prepared fresh on a hot griddle, with tender liver pieces cooked in a blend of spices that add a distinctive kick. The dish is a favorite among locals, often enjoyed for its hearty taste and nutritional value.
As he continues exploring, Zia samples a refreshing "banana mango sharbat." Lyari’s hot climate makes this chilled drink, made from fresh bananas and mangoes, a perfect way to beat the heat while enjoying the natural sweetness and a smooth, thick texture. This sharbat is particularly loved by Lyari residents and visitors alike for its refreshing qualities.
Zia also tries chargha, a deep-fried or steamed chicken dish that is rich with spices and crispy on the outside, while juicy and tender on the inside. This dish is a must-try in Lyari, often served with naan or raita to balance out the intense flavors.
The highlight of Zia’s trip, however, is his visit to "Abdul Majeed BBQ," one of Lyari’s most iconic BBQ spots. Abdul Majeed BBQ is famous across Karachi for its smoky, perfectly grilled meats that are seasoned with a unique spice blend. From tender kebabs to juicy tikka pieces, the BBQ here captures the essence of Lyari’s culinary style—bold, flavorful, and irresistibly good. The food at Abdul Majeeb BBQ reflects decades of mastery and dedication, making it a beloved spot not only in Lyari but also among food lovers across Karachi.
This video showcases the heart and soul of Lyari through its people, culture, and, most importantly, its food. Whether you’re a local or an international viewer, this journey through Lyari’s culinary landscape is bound to leave you with an appreciation for the diverse flavors and rich heritage of Karachi’s iconic neighborhood
