Awesome, guys, and we are deep

and first up to start the day,
we're going for the ultimate paya, beef foot stew.
Right up here, it's super famous,
and it's supposed to be one of the best payas
in the whole world.
This is just amazing, guys.
Coming to Pakistan has been a long time dream of mine,
and we're gonna start up right here
with a beef foot paya.
Look at this.
Hi.
Wow, this is the paya?
Paya.
Beef?
Goat.
Oh, goat paya.
Wow.
Look at this insanely potent paya we've got here.
So you can see all of these succulent and juicy
and gelatinous goat feet.
Tasty?
Very good.
Very tasty.
That is the definition of jelly infused flavor.
You can just slurp it off,
and that stock is full of cardamom and spice and masala.
Lots of masala.
And we're just gonna start here, guys.
You get one goat foot, and he just loads it up
with the stock and that fatty gelatinous delight.
Wow, and there's the stock.
Oh, and then a little masala.
Masala right on top, and that is it right there.
Look at all that fat on those beautiful little goat feet.
This is amazing, guys.
Not only do we have amazing paya,
but we've got this beautiful tandoor full of naan
covered and sprinkled in sesame,
and that's gonna go perfectly with the paya.
Just amazing.
Just amazing here.
And here we are, guys.
We've got the Lahori paya.
That is pure fatty gelatinous goat feet
covered in their homemade masala
full of cumin seed, coriander seed,
tons of local Pakistani spices,
and look at this, beautiful naan fresh out of the tandoor.
You can smell that toasted sesame flavor,
and we're just gonna break that.
Oh, and I'm just gonna scoop up that fat.
There it is, guys, the ultimate bite of paya.
Look at the fat on there.
Look at that gelatinous fatty skin and fat around the goat feet
and it's on that ultra-saturated naan.
Mm, that right there, that right there
is the ultimate goat-infused, slightly spicy stew
with the naan and that sesame toasted flavor
and the goat fat, and this is just the beginning
of our journey in Pakistan.
Thank you, bye.
That was just incredible, guys,
and we're going for food all day.
And next up, we're bringing you freestyle food ranging
into the back alleys of the old-walled city of Lahore
to find local street foods,
starting up first with a local chana chickpea stew
loaded with spice.
And this is just beautiful, guys,
the old Lahore walled city.
This is Delhi Gate right here.
Delhi is exactly pointing that way,
and today, we are exploring this beautiful old city all day.
We're going for dish after dish of street food.
We're gonna go deep into the old city of Lahore
and see what we can find.
Let's go see what we can find.
And I think we just found the ultimate puri,
and, hi, as-salamu alaykum.
Wow.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, puri.
Oh, chana puri.
With puri, with puri.
Oh, we just found chana puri.
Oh, look at that.
That's the chana puri, chickpea stew,
and you can actually see coriander seed,
cumin, and green chili on top.
Oh, and there it is, guys, the ultimate chana puri,
chickpea stew, and you can actually see
all that cumin and coriander and chili,
and it comes with the acha, the pickle,
and that is what it's all about here, guys,
the radish, carrot, mango, pickle mix,
and this is amazing, guys, look at this.
We're making puri, and it goes perfectly
with the chana puri, right in the oil,
the Pakistani puri, wow, right in that oil.
Oh, and this is it, the chana and the puri.
Pakistan is just the land of delicious food
and friendly people, and that's what we've experienced
here so far, the minute we got off the plane.
We're just gonna dip that beautiful puri
into that Pakistani chana, oh, yeah, look at that,
and we're gonna take a pickle here,
and you can just put it right on that delicious puri.
Mm, oh, oh, tasty, oh, wow.
That is a definition of street flavor right there,
pure chickpea, smooth, a little peppery,
a little spicy, with a crispy, oily puri,
and a spicy pickle.
Thank you, bye, see you next time.
That was amazing.
And next up, we're jumping into a rickshaw
and going deeper into the back alleys of Lahore
to see what we can find.
Stopping at a local street dessert vendor.
We're gonna keep exploring, guys.
We're gonna take a rickshaw here.
Hey, as-salamu alaykum.
Baya, bati gate, bati gate, 100 rupees?
Okay, let's go.
And here we go, guys, we're going to bati gate,
deeper into old Lahore
to taste more delicious street food.
And this is just amazing, guys, exploring the streets.
As-salamu alaykum.
Wa alaykum as-salam.
Wow.
Yeh kya hai?
Haan, bini hai.
Oh, bini?
Gol, gol wali, badam wali, giri wali.
Oh, badam?
Haan.
Badam?
Oh, so badam nuts?
Oh, wow, this is just amazing, guys.
So we found a local dessert.
I believe this is made with semolina flour,
delicious chickpea flour.
It's got palm sugar, it's got jaggery,
and it's also got almonds.
The bini?
Haan.
Wow.
Giri wali badam bini.
Bini?
Haan ji, free.
Free, free.
Haan, giri wali badam bini.
Can I have an egg, too?
Egg, egg, egg, egg, egg, and egg.
Haan.
Oh, and there it is.
And this is it, the bini?
Ji.
Haan, bini.
The bini?
Oh, wow.
And there they are, guys.
We've got one with semolina flour
and one with whole wheat flour,
and they both have jaggery and almonds.
This is a local Pakistani dessert.
Try it out.
Okay.
Oh, wow.
It's really rich with palm sugar, with jaggery.
Your good name?
Benazir?
Nice to meet you.
I'm Trevor.
And after trying to pay,
but with Mr. Nazir not accepting payment,
even after the cameras stopped rolling,
we kept moving by rickshaw to find more food.
And this is it, guys.
And we're going deeper and deeper all day today, guys.
We're deep in the alleys of Old Lahore,
and right here.
Wow, look what we got here, guys.
Look at that.
That's wheat flour, wheat flour puffs with yogurt.
So it's going to be sour.
And we're going to load it up there with masala.
Oh, and a little onion.
Oh, and a mint chutney.
Look at that.
Mint chutney on top.
So it's a sour mint chutney.
Beautiful.
And we just found the ultimate,
look at this, guys, fruit chat.
You can actually see tons of banana,
strawberry, mango, dates, green jelly.
And it's all in this delicious, delicious sweet cream.
It's all in there.
Oh, strawberry.
That is sweet and colorful.
Look at that.
So amazing looking.
Wow.
Let's try it out.
Oh, wow.
Oh, that is awesome.
That is so sweet.
Luxury fruit chat.
Wow, it's like a syrupy fruit chat.
Tastes like honey.
Oh, and that cream.
So sweet and satisfying.
So we've got the dahi vada next.
It's not bad.
The wheat puffs, I don't think I like them.
To me, they taste maybe a little bit like cardboard.
So I think we just hit a dud today.
Next up, we're making our way
to our evening extreme chicken heaven.
But stopping on the side of the road first
for a famous beetroot drink.
And there is just so much street food everywhere here, guys.
Look at this.
Look what we found.
As-salamu alaykum.
How are you, brother?
Same.
Wow.

Oh, so this is the khaji.

We've got these big jugs full of beetroot juice.
And we're gonna break off this ice here.
Oh, yeah, and put it right in there.
Beautiful.
Crack it, and that is gonna be a sour carrot drink.
Little bit of masala right on the streets of Lahore.
We're gonna pop that open.
Oh, yeah.
Look at that.
That's the beetroot.
Bright red beetroot juice and sour carrot.
It's got pepper and masala and ice in there.
Oh, and we're just gonna pull it.
This is incredible.
Shukriya bhaiya.
Oh.

That is sour and peppery.
It's like a sour, peppery, spicy,
refreshing, healthy drink.
Wow, very nice.
And this is the beetroot, the khaji.
Wow, that is sour and peppery.
Right on the streets of Lahore.
Really healthy.
I think this is good for your liver,
good for your stomach, good for your digestion.
And it's so nice to be here exploring old Lahore.
And to finish the day, we're bringing you next
to the ultimate grilled chicken in Lahore.
Super spicy, super creamy,

That is so much masala and green chili.
Yogurt masala.
And that chicken is just looking so tender and juicy.

It's all infused in there.
And then we got the leg piece over here.
And it's all served with this super nice
and thin, wholesome chapati.
And we're just gonna take some chapati here.
And I really wanna try this.
This boneless.
And you can just, wow.
You can just make it into a wrap.
And they serve it with this raita.
So you can pour that yogurt with cumin on top.

right over top.
Just a touch, just a touch.
Oh, because you want that pure favor.
Mm.
Oh, wow.
Mm.
You can really taste cumin and citrus and yogurt.
Oh, wow.
And it's so full of pure tzatziki.
It's buttery and saturated and heavy.
That is a full-on, extremely spicy kick.
