Walk into Nihari Junction and you're not there for the décor or Instagram moments—you're there because word's got out that this place does one thing brilliantly. The signature nihari, a Pakistani beef stew that's been simmered for hours, arrives in a bowl that demands respect: tender meat falling apart, a sauce so rich it coats everything, finished with fresh ginger and coriander. It's the kind of dish that makes you understand why people queue down the street. Queensway's always been a bit of a foodie free-for-all, and this sits comfortably among the best spots in the neighbourhood. Come hungry, come with time, and come prepared to abandon any pretence of sophistication.
