Menupages War Expands to Pakistan
All dressed up with nowhere to go in Islamabad? Simply got the munchies? Perhaps Foona can steer you in the right direction. No, that's not the name of a Lonely Planet author, it's Islamabad's latest (and maybe only) website dedicated exclusively to restaurant listings.
Whether you crave a 'round the clock hangover-smiting serving of chicken tikka (Food 24 Hours), a fix of sugary kulfa (Rasheed Sweets), or, gasp, American food, Foona will tell you where to go and how much it will cost you.
You can search by neighborhood, cuisine, price, or all three, but remember this brand new site is still in its beta phase. Could that explain why Subway qualifies for the "Garden Fresh" category? Beta or not, Foona's mission to serve foodies and draw attention to even the tiniest mom-and-pop grub stops is honorable.
The website is in English, but gets its name from a combination of the word "food" and its Urdu equivalent ("khana").
