"This map is going to be the solution to everyday problems. At least now if someone asks you what to eat or cook today, then you are for sure going to pick from this list if you are truly a desi food lover," says Altaf, as he focuses on domestic local foods easily available throughout the regions.

"When I started on data collection, many dishes appeared in front of me that I was unaware of," he added, saying that he was excited to share the names with everyone.

From Punjabi Shakar Pary to Nargisi Kofta in Sindh, Pakhtun Kabuli Pulao to Gilgiti Diram Fitti, Balochi Dampukht and Kashmiri Shab-Daig - which one is your personal favourite?

Tremendous and applaudable effort by Pakistan atlas. It would be good if he adds recipes in video and images form for each dish once someone click on any of the mentioned item. There are many desi food vlogs available like desi food secret etc.

Good try, but disappointed. Picture of our mindset and culture. We always promote provincialism then being proud of Pakistan first. Are provincial foods are not Pakistani food?

Why would it be "breaking news for many women" specifically? What exactly is he implying? Not to detract from his commendable effort, but still very odd

it seems no research work don, only plotted dishes on the table of map, origins are incorrect and most of the signature dishes are missing,

Too much focus on food for stomach...and not food for brain!
