Chief BurgerNo. 1 on this list

Rawalpindi eats big and eats well. Its food leans Frontier — Afghani karahi, Peshawari tikka and heaped pulao — alongside a few home-grown legends the whole twin-cities region drives in for. It's unpretentious, generous food, best shared.

These are the tables Pindi actually names. Each is a real, open listing on Mulk.
