Unusual food at bazaars in Tashkent, Uzbekistan

2 22

Continuation of the walk through the oriental bazaars.

Farhad Bazaar is not in the center.

You can reach it by metro - the ride costs 1.200 so'm ($0.15).

If you-a tourist and have bought too many tokens, you can take them back to the cashier and you will return the money for them.

Here in Farkhad can meet something of the Eastern-colourfulness.

- I love this kind of flatbread.

- How much is it?

You can also eat this.

- When there is lack of Calcium, you should it this.

- Pregnant women do eat this.

- Pregnant women?

Assorted Kurt - salted dried cottage cheese.

Nuts, sweets - this is what I take to Moscow, but I won't buy it here, I'll buy it on the most picturesque Bazaar of Tashkent - "Chorsu"

It is not to be confused with others, can be recognized by the domes.

- Inside the dom.

- This is pelmeni -  farinaceous food.

- What is it?

- It's for laghman.

- Ok. So, you do not have to cook anything, it is cooked?

- Yes. Just put everything in a hot water.

- Alright, thank you.

- Here you can buy a poultry.

- Fresh flatbread is being sold.

- Here are Korean salads, pickles, cottage cheese.

On "Chorsu" you need to buy everything that will be taken to Moscow - to your friends, relatives and colleagues.

Traditionally in the list of such goods nuts are walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts.

Trading rows are located not only under the dome, but also next to it.

Here the workers wash their hands, vegetables and cool something packed.

Do you like these huge bundles of radishes?

Impressive goods - impressive seller.

Every day such bundles have to be brought here and then taken away.

There are helpers here.

If you do not want to carry what you bought on the market - no problem.

The helper goes all the time behind you, puts everything in his cart, can advise, be silent - it's like you say.

Each such cart has its own number, to avoid confusion, the price is as agreed.

I think ten thousand soums ($1.25) is OK.

A flatbread-plate - after having a meal (meat) it's not necessary to wash -  just eat it too.

If you are on the "Chorsu" there is no way, my friends, to pass you by "guzzle rows".

For sure you would want to eat what is offered.

And there is plenty of options.

Of course, the pilaf, but we have eaten it in Tashkent in the previous episode.

Of course, shashlik, samsa, chicken in different variations, fish for lovers, some sausages...

This is naryn, I've already told you about it.

Why is it on bottles? Have no idea.

Was ashamed to ask. Everyone must have noticed it for sure.

And what's that?

What do you think?

- How much?

- 2500

The dish is called khanum.

There are potatoes in the  dough - and all this in tomato sauce.

The dish is unusual, but has its admirers.

Well, Souvenirs, Souvenirs, Souvenirs...

Funny grandpas, which have already become familiar, magnets on the fridge in the form of flatbread, which has shashlik on it, bags, carpets, plates...

The day ends, also ends the vacation and the trip to Uzbekistan.

We're going to the airport.

We carry a lot of gifts and are not afraid of excess.

"Uzbek airlines" allow one passenger to carry 30 kilograms of cargo.

But the tickets are still expensive.

By the way, in previous years if I was shooting a video at the airport, I would definitely be approached by a policeman and would strongly recommend to stop filming at least.

Now, you can film - if you want.

Well, the journey to Uzbekistan is over.

It was wonderful!
