This lunch table shown in above photo is not on ground, it is on a mountain, 4000 feet above sea level. This place is known as Chirat where I’d a lunch with my family, above the mountains, in the clouds with beautiful landscape all around. While moving above the mountains I praise ALLAH at each level that how beautifully ALLAH create this world, these mountains, how beautifully these trees are planted on sloppy mountains. How lush green these mountains read more…
Kamra is a place where you can find many entertaining place at half or an hour drive. There is a city Attock hardly on 15 minutes drive from Kamra. This is a small city which has a big bazaar for shopping. It also has restaurants and traditional food stuff. As I always look towards the specialty of that place so I went to have a Afghani Pilao which is a special dish in this region. My elder bro guide me to a traditional style eating place which was occupied by Afghani people and they make special kind of pilao.

First day in Kamra, I go to Attack Khurd, which is like 30 minutes drive from Kamra. It is a beautiful place which has an old railway station and a bridge surrounded in mountains. Bridge is on river Indus and it gives a very eye catching view.Bridge is built in 1800 and quite active and used for trains till now. Earlier it was used for cars, vehicles too but now that part is used for pedestrians only. But this is lower part of the bridge, upper part has railway track on it which is still used for trains. It seems very beautiful train passing the bridge on Indus river with mountains around it.

A flight of stairs paneled like a cave’s walls leads you through a glass door in to a sanctum dimly lit in purple called the Purple Haze Cafe. Everything from the rocky ceilings to the plush velvety cubicles, and the art on the walls is done in purple, the color of magic.
The aroma of the blueberry sheesha wafting through the chilled air, trance music blaring through the speakers and the purple glow gives the whole place an aura of hushed mystery and puts you under a spell.
The café has a karaoke bar lined with brass statues which light up in orange hue at night and renders the atmosphere even more enchanting. Besides that they are equipped with a flat screen to play music videos and new flicks.
An à la carte menu listed with sumptuous meals ranging from ravioli to ravishing prawns or you could order snacks like club sandwich, even their French fries have the power of making you ravenous, and such is the taste of the food.
Alongside, they have an exotic offering of tropical juices, scrumptious shakes, rich lattes and mouthwatering desserts to seal the deal to the best evening out. Purple Haze Café is the perfect dining experience.
Purple Haze Café is very different from the regular cafés in town. It is designed with an ambiance to transport you to just another world.

Yesterday my Mom planned to visit her elder son living in Kamra. Kamra is a small place in Northern Punjab where I believe nothing important is. It’s not possible to miss my daily morning classes so there ain’t any plan but urge to visit new places pursue me, n my heart says ‘let’s do it’, let’s give a leave for morning classes. I call my senior and says that I’m going to visit my brother and I’ll be back in three days. Plan was to come today but I didn’t wait to miss another day and said to my mom that let’s go now. It was 6 pm and we all get ready to move. We say our Maghrib prayer and get out of house at 7 pm. read more…
Biryani is one of our traditional rice dish and there’s a big competition against it. There are many brands which only deals in Biryani. Brands like Student Biryani and Biryani Express. They are biryani specialist and their main item is biryani and they also make it good. Lately I’d Fazal-e-Haq biryani because I didn’t find above two franchises nearby. It wasn’t matchable to those names so when ever you wish to had a biryani go to some proper biryani brand. Those who have a list of other dishes in menu are very often good with such special dishes. read more…

Once, as usual i entered my college early morning.For the very first time i went to college that early just because of my young brother who wanted to reach college satti saweray (early morning)because he don’t like to face head boys of our college directly on main gate, he scares that they might capture him for some reason.Anyways, as i was walking through a long distant path from main gate to classes, that incipient gleam of dawn and foggy scene took my attention.For once i froze there and started to stare. Then i wonder what if i capture that picture and post it on “Eat ‘n Travel” haha
