Multan Restaurants

  1. Bundu Khan

    Next door to Zanzibar, although not as funky, this restaurant still gets the thumbs up. The waiters are obliging and there's pleasant alfresco dining (indoor seating is also available). The Pakistani cuisine is tasty but can be fiery, so request less chilli if your taste buds aren't up for the ride. Alternatively, opt for the Chinese or fast-food offerings, which include chicken honey wings and chicken cheeseburgers.

  6. Tasty Plus Restaurant

    The chefs here do a fairly good job of Pakistani, Chinese and Continental cuisine. The succulent mutton leg steam roast ( Rs410 per 1kg serve) is enough for two.

  7. Zanzibar

    Hip and happening, Zanzibar has attentive staff, a chic interior and a swanky circular bar (all that's missing is the alcohol!). The ambitious menu here sports everything from seafood chowder, to hot dogs, to Mexican chicken fajitas. Zanzibar's dessert list even includes an Australian-inspired 'summer pavlova'.
