"It was a good run, but Karachi Cowboys, one of Capitol Hill’s most creative and original restaurants, is no more. The business was started as a pop-up by Houston native Nasir Zubair, who combined his Pakistani heritage and Texas roots to make some truly outstanding food. His kheema (ground beef, peas, and pickled onions served over rice) made a Seattle Times food writer “swoon,” and he attracted a passionate fan base. In summer 2021 he and his wife, Nicole Greenwald, opened a brick-and-mortar location on Capitol Hill with the help of $53,000 from a Kickstarter campaign. It was notable enough to earn a mention in the New York Times." - Harry Cheadle
