Pakistani cuisine can be characterized by a blend of various regional cooking traditions of the Indian subcontinent, Central Asia as well as elements from its Mughal legacy. Cuisine from the eastern provinces of Punjab and Sindh are characterized as "highly seasoned" and "spicy". Cuisine from the western and northern provinces of Azad Jammu & Kashmir, Balochistan, Gilgit-Baltistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the Tribal areas are characterized as "mild". International cuisine and fast food are popular in the cities. Blending local and foreign recipes is common in large urban centers. Furthermore, as a result of lifestyle changes, ready made masala mixes (mixed and ready to use spices) are becoming increasingly popular. However, given the diversity of the people of Pakistan, cuisines generally differ from home to home and may be different from the mainstream Pakistani cuisine.
My thoughts on Pakistani cuisine
I am living in Pakistan for the last 8 years and stopped eating Pakistani food after 4 months I here. Why? Because I can't stand the amount of pepper they use. All that pepper together with liters of oil or ghee and salt definitely can't please a Brazilian. Specially from southeast of Brazil. So, if you can handle all the spicy that's ok otherwise go for Afghani or Arabic food.
