My sister demonstrates to me how yummy masala is injected directly into the leg piece of the chicken. This she called Al-Baik chicken and was served with fries and a yummy sauce containing olive oil. A bit heavy too.

My dada on Eid-ul-Fitr, Karachi
Via Flickr:
Dada is an Urdu term meaning 'Paternal grandfather'. My dada's name is Haji Moosa Adhia, Adhia being the family name. My dada and dadi came from India after it was partitioned into Pakistan and India in 1948 via ship. So they were spared the troubles faced by people arriving by trains at Lahore via Amritsar. I often ask my dada about the hardships he faced while coming here but he always tells me it was difficult to leave his ancestral home. But he never recalls any problem arising on the ship itself, which sailed from Bombay to Karachi.
My dada hails from a small Indian town of Bhawannagar, Gujerat province.
