According to multiple news reports, an eatery in Lahore may be serving its customers with frog meat, it emerged on Sunday.
Lahoriites were taken aback a few years ago when news broke that at several eateries in the city, donkeys were being served as food.
However, speculation is rife that now, instead of regular meat, an eatery is offering its customers frog meat. That’s right, FROGS!
According to pictures doing the rounds on social media and a few news channels, Punjab Police caught a rickshaw loaded with 200kg dead frogs near New Ravi Bridge. The frogs, according to certain reports, were being transported to an eatery where they were to be served as food to customers.
Punjab Police reportedly has arrested the restaurant owners who were serving the food to customers.
Notably, the rickshaw driver Azhar has also been taken into custody in Shahadra Police Station. Moreover, the authorities have also informed the livestock Department and Punjab Food Authority about the incident.
People took to social media to opine on the incident.

It seems Lahoris have taken that “Paris of Pakistan” slogan rather seriously & have adopted the Parisian cuisine. Frog legs are indeed a French delicacy.
