As I continued exploring the vibrant street food of Lahore, Pakistan, I knew I had to try one of its top local specialties, paya! Join me as I try some exotic street food in Lahore, including paya, and visit some attractions in this beautiful city in Pakistan!
I was so pumped to start this morning with my friends Rashid and Adeel from Manaky. We’d be kicking off our day with paya, which is a savory goat leg stew that’s extremely popular here in Lahore!

The paya is cooked in massive vats at Al-Sahat Corner on Temple Road. You place your order, and they add the goat legs and the broth, and then you take it to eat it outside. It also contains the meat and some brains as well! I love organ meat, so I couldn’t wait to dive in!
We took our paya outside and set it up on the trunk of our car to dig in! It looked so rich and meaty. I knew there would be a lot of flavor because of the whole bones down in the broth!
The meat was so fatty and gelatinous. I had been waiting to eat this dish from the beginning of my trip and it did not disappoint!
The dish contained a lot of small bones, so you have to be careful. I’m not usually a big fan of animal feet, but this was unbelievably tasty.
The meat was super tender and wasn’t too spicy. I absolutely loved the gravy.
Then, I went for the brains, which were in a separate container with broth. I liked the brains even better than the feet. They were buttery, creamy, spongy, and gelatinous.
You should definitely be into eating organ meat to really enjoy this dish. Luckily, I’m obsessed with organ meat, so this was heavenly for me!
Then, we finished up our meal with some thick Punjabi lassi. It was creamy and refreshing, and a great way to wash down the heavy, exotic paya!
Then, as it started raining, we went to get some halwa puri at Sadiq Halwa Puri. This is the most traditional breakfast in Pakistan. I’d eaten some in every city so far.
There, they had plain halwa, khoya halwa, saffron halwa, mutton kachori ,and chicken kachori.
The mutton kachori was flaky and crispy and reminded me of a Cuban empanada. I liked the saffron halwa with the puri a lot. It was nutty, sweet, and oily, with a nice amount of saffron flavor.
After eating, we drove to Lahore Fort, a 16th-century fort built by Mughal Emperor Akbar I. We got to see the beautiful picture wall outside. There are 58 wide steps called the Elephant Steps.
Above them are the balconies where slave girls would greet the emperor as he arrived and toss rose petals on him. The site is gorgeous!
The Mughal Empire was massive and spanned from present-day India to Afghanistan to Uzbekistan. That’s why the historical architecture there is so similar.
Lahore Fort was made of lots of red sandstone and reminded me of the forts I visited in Jaipur, India. Then, we visited the Mirror Palace, the inside walls and ceiling of which is covered in pieces of glass.
The inside of the fort is also stunning. It hasn’t been restored but it’s incredible that it’s 400 years old!
A two-minute walk from the fort is the Royal Mosque. It’s made up of gardens, a massive courtyard, and several buildings. It’s the 6th-largest mosque in the world!
I took off my shoes. Over 100,000 people pray there. It’s made entirely of red sandstone and has 4 minarets and 3 domes.
Then, we saw Pakistan Minar, which marks the spot where Pakistan started with the passing of the resolution 81 years ago.
