Pakistan's SUPERWOMAN Street Food - Organic HUNZA Pakistani Street Food by Lal Shehzadi!!


In Karimabad Bazaar, Hunza, there is a woman chef who was the first woman in Hunza to start a business. Her name is Lal Shehzadi, and you can’t miss her restaurant hut which is constantly packed with locals. Lal Shehzadi was kind enough to meet us and we had wonderful conversations. She is very passionate about clean, organic food and is an educator to the locals about good farming practices. She has even traveled to Japan to expand her expertise on planting and harvesting from her garden.

Despite her positivity and passion for what she does, and despite the perpetual flow of hungry guests coming to eat her food, she spoke about the challenges she faced as a woman starting her own business and becoming a chef. Many told her to stay at home, that she shouldn’t work, and that she should always cover her head. Many of her peers doubted her ability to make her dream a reality. However, she remained strong and ambitious, and created one of the most famous restaurants in the area and her name and food remains legendary!

We ordered her famous Hunza dishes: Chap Shoro (which is a pan fried meat pie) and Burutz Berikutz (which is a fresh cheese chapati). Both dishes were made with only local, organic ingredients, including apricot and walnut oil which define the flavours of Hunza food. The food, although made with simple ingredients, was fantastic!!! You could taste that Lal Shehzadi puts love into every dish she makes and we feel so honoured to meet her and eat her amazing Hunza food.
