It was quite a popular place with plenty of patrons enjoying their signature dish, nihari.


Nihari is a stew of slow-cooked meat and is considered the national dish of Pakistan. As well as beef shank our nihari came with diced brain. My first time eating brain and it only had little flavour and had a similar consistency as scrambled egg.


After the late lunch we headed to a local money exchange to get some Pakistani rupees. I tried to change a $100 note that was in perfect condition from 2006, but they said it was too old and would only change more recent $100 notes. I didn't realise US dollars had an expiry date! Luckily I had some newer notes though.


At the local telecom office to get a local sim card for my iPhone. It was possible to get one under my own name but it would take three days to activate so Jamal put it under his name. It was quite cheap, at 350 rupees ($3) for 750mb of data.


Jamal and Salem then dropped me off back at the Hotel Mehran in the late afternoon where I chilled out for abit after the busy day of sightseeing.

Just before 6pm I went out to explore the city again.


And enjoying a walk through the bustling streets.
