So in Uzbekistan, they like to eat. and eat alot.
and make their guests eat a shitload.
I dont think ive ever had to knock back an 8 course meal
with only neat vodka.
And then get up and have a 3 course lunch the next day.
FOR 8 DAYS
My stomach has never felt such endurance testing
The food was different, and tasty
Who would have thought about twinning savory dishes
with apricots, cherries, strawbs and chocolates!?
Here are some of the translated menus available for tourists
(there arent many tourists)
"I will have a herring under fur coat, followed by a lady whim please.
With a side of sissy"
The spice market - itchy nose!
runny eyes
dried ladies selling dried fruits
(it was very warm)
The national dish - PLOV
(horse meat and beef over paella style rice)
I just recently traveled through Uzbekistan and loved it, especially the food. I ended up doing a photo essay on the dishes there. It is not as detailed as yours but if your are interested, check it out at:
