Food
in taxila
Eating
out in Taxila is generally inexpensive and the portions generous.
There are excellent Pakistani, Indian and Chinese restaurants
and a host of fast foot, barbeques and street food outlets. Many
hawkers also serve good value food. There are many coffee shops
for hot and soft drink
Even Pakistan's
flotillas of vintage Bedford buses and trucks, mirror-buffed and
chrome-sequinned, are dazzling works of art. Traditional dances
are lusty and vigorous; music is either classical, folk or devotional;
and the most patronised literature is a mix of the scholastic
and poetic. Cricket is Pakistan's greatest sports obsession and
national players are afforded hero status - unless, of course,
they proselytise young and wealthy English women, then marry them.
