Ali, that sounds like a plan - as long as you can keep it together when you get questioned...btw, I'm kidding! I'm seriously not a crackhead, even if it appears that way...:P

Kaniza, I'll be crossing the border again tomorrow to go home for the weekend - can you guess what I won't be taking with me? It's usually not a bad experience though - the only problem I had was this one time when customs did a quick check thru my bag and found green tea leaves in a ziploc bag that my dad brought with him from Pakistan. Lol, I told them what it was but they sniffed it anyway to make sure. Lesson learned: don't carry substances that look like weed in a ziploc bag when crossing any borders!

Kaniza, just make sure you're not carrying any fruits or vegetables with you when you plan on going to the US - you won't get clearance if you do. Everytime I cross the border from Canada into the US, the first question they ask me is whether I have any fruits or vegetables on me - you would think they would ask if I had any weapons or drugs instead...

Correction-
Salateen does not serve kababs, I actually menat tikkas when I mentioned Salateen.

The best chaplie kababs are available at "Bukhso Pull" near Charsadda. The best kababs in Peshawar can be found at "Jaleel Kabab House" near Jinnah Park and Naz cinema. Also, on the road from Peshawar to Nowshera "Taro Jaba" is has excellent places, the best one is that of Rambell Ustaz.
If you want to go to a rather classy place, then there is no place like Salateen in Peshawar, but make sure you go to the orignal Salateen neas Kisa Khwani and not the one on University road.
