Pakistani and Indian cuisine is same so why this distinction?
India has multiple cuisines, for eg South Indian, Gujarati, Maharashtrian, Bengali etc- Pakistani has only Punjabi
I guess you very little about Pakistan
May be, but majority of Pakistanis think India is only North India and the Cuisine is just is Punjabi and Mughalai
Well that is not true, e.g sajji, it is a balochi dish, chapli kebab is a pakhtun dish and many other dishes as well, as a person from skardu, we have alot of things of our culture as well
Pakistan too has Pashto, Sindhi, Balochi, Makrani, Kashmiri and even Afghani dishes which are very delicious and distinct from each other. for instance, fish and biryani is cooked differently in Lahore and Karachi.
India has very diverse food each states has different cuisines…. there’s no way pak and indian food is same apart from punjabi
Indian khane khao pehlay. Phir pata lagay ga k kya faraq hai 🤭
Rubbish! That’s a biased ranking…. Would you believe Aaloo bhaji tarkari and dishes like these are better than beef delicacies
You would change your mind if you taste these indian food
Sorpotel, Pork Solantulem or Amsol, Coorg-Style Pandi Curry, Pork Fry, Pork Momos, Naga Pork Curry, Smoked Pork
I believe all food from Pakistan and India is the best food in the world also as part of the regional culture we have so many foods and here in the list are just nominal foods we can not judge Pakistan is best or India is best both we are same taste same culture so be positive and appreciate each other and love each other
Ham pehla bohot gain Kar rahe Jo is afsos ho GA.
Ahhahahahha savage 😂😂
There is a discrimination in ranking. Pakistani and Indian foods are more or less similar. Moreover, the Turkish foods are supreme over all. All the Arab cuisines are Turkish based.
i think judges would be from indian otherwise meatless bhee koi food hai
Na na meatless food koi food thode hoti hai 😂. Roti aur rice b bekar hi khate ho, meat hi sirf khaya kro bacche. 😂
Never new GOOTAR soaked meals are liked world over….hehehe
India =INDIAN SUBCONTINENT, There is no Bengladeshi/Pakistani cuisine on its own. Dishes you mentioned orginated eg Haleem in India and is relished by meat lovers. Mongol or Afghan dishes did not originate in Pakistan.
I live in United Kingdom and we all call Pakistani restaurants Indian restaurants or Indian food.
Pakistan should enter pulses,vegetables Pulao etc in the list along with meat,
We are losing to India in many things that doesn’t mean India are better than Pakistan. In fact Indian policy is to destroy Pakistan in everything with support of international anti Pakistan lobby. What all I know is Indian influence or the foreign policy is only better than Pakistan.
Ye baat bhai tum ne bhut sahi kahi. Exactly like Pakistani. Puri duniya Pakistani Musalmano k khilaf shajish kr rhi hai and India(for you Endia) ka economy jo ki population and bda markeet hone k wajah se log India ka saath bhi de rhe hai.
Pakistan world super power bn rha hai isi liye poori duniya k ps koi kaam nhi hai aur wo Pakistan k khilaf shajish krte hai. 😂😂
🤭🥱🙏
Endia is ranking one in toilet less nation🖕🖕
My foot, such a biased and unfair ranking, Indian vegetables and dal is better then are delicious namkeen gosht biryani nd much more ,,wohhhh what a nice decision making ,,
