Restaurant Review

                                                 It was a great experience to visit the "CAFE VICTORY" with my university Lads on last week for lunch. It is located near Grant Road, Karachi. It was established 52 years ago. Its building is now old but no doubt it is well maintain and its floor having a old design which is quiet amazing style. So when we entered into the cafe victory the waiter welcome us in a good and respected way and give the direction that sir come and sit here, after that he brought the menu card for the selection of food. me and my friends agreed on two different types of pulses with chappati, reason behind ordering only pulses beacuse we already having take late breakfast that's why we order only pulses. Then I start looking around the cafe, all environment was good, peaceful and clean floor, table was decorated by nice color of cloth.

                                               After a 10 min waiter brought the order meal, it was delicious, hot and spicy more over it was fresh. after finishing the lunch we paid the bill, it was not expensive as the cafe looks like and their services too. It was my first experience to visit this cafe victory with my friends, after experiencing the "Cafe Victory" i rate 10/8.

 

If you Could Live anywhere where it would be:

If money wasn't an issue, I wouldn't stay in one place for too long. XD.

        I don't have an exact location in mind. But I would love to live in "Dubai" because Dubai, has been identified as the most attractive city in the world to live in in terms of professional and private life, according to an Insead Alumni survey.

                                                              

                              Among 15 of the world’s prominent cities, Dubai topped the list for the best place to work, ahead of others such as New York, Hong Kong, Singapore, London and Paris, and ranking first in economic dynamism, third in overall attractiveness, and receiving the fourth place in quality of life and cost of living.

                              In the past too, other surveys have consistently ranked the UAE cities Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah among the best cities to live in the Arab World, but the latest survey ranks Dubai as the best in the world, offering better job opportunities, better overall quality of life and competitive salaries!

Garbage situation of Karachi is getting from bad to worse, day by day Open sewerage drains and garbage dumbs are giving rise to many harmful diseases. Karachi is the economic hub of Pakistan but still there is no one to look after this city. 

                                                                               Citizens of Karachi do not need to read about city’s sanitation situation in newspaper, they witness it in every street corner of the city.There is no administration at all and because of this, citizens are really frustrated and they need some solution for this problem. Karachi needs some serious attention and it is also a matter of great concern for higher authorities. Sindh government should look into the matter and take some proper steps to make Karachi clean and beautiful. 

                                                                                                         For visitors, beaches and shopping centers hold the much attraction. The tomb of Quaid e Azam is the hallmark of the Karachi city and is one of the most visited areas in Pakistan. Karachi was in real discovered by the British, it was basically a fishing village called Kolachi. Because of its proximity to the sea, it was preferred and acknowledged by the British.

The most popular ones are following:
