Tashkent Vegan Street Food Tour
Beskrivelse
Vi vil vise dig Tashkent ukendt for turister og besøgende og dække forskellige dele af byen, herunder to markeder: i den traditionelle gamle bydel og den travle bymidte, hver tilbyder deres mest kendte lokale street food. Som veganere, der voksede op i denne kødtunge by, var vi i stand til at vælge de bedste steder at tilbyde for lokal plantebaseret gademat og ønskede at dele vores viden med andre og fortælle historien om vores by på en personlig og unik måde. Det betyder, at vi ikke vil gøre det til en typisk kedelig tur med at spise mad fra sted til sted hele tiden. I stedet vil vi glædeligt tilpasse det på farten med vandreture, billeder, historier og mennesker. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - En del af pengene fra turen går til at støtte fængslede veganske aktivister.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Vi starter turen med den ældste og mest maleriske basar i Tashkent, der ligger i den gamle bydel og går direkte til 'Gluttony Lane' for de al-by-kendte Khanum - kartoffelkager i rig tomatsauce. À la lasagne men hurtigere og bedre.
Efter at have forladt det travle marked, vil vi gå gennem de smalle, svingende gader i Tashkent's gamle bydel. Tag et øjeblik til at suge ind i det afslappede tempo af det lokale liv, da vi bemærker nabolagets børn i leg. Vores destination er kvarteret Xadra, hvor vi vil prøve lækre, friskfremstillede dampede dumplings (manti) lige foran vores øjne. Afhængigt af sæsonen kan du vælge fra vidunderlige salte fyld som pumpin, spinat, kartoffel eller en levende grøntsagsmix!
Vi tager derefter til Oloy marked - et centralt beliggende bondemarked. Vi vil prøve usbekisk rundt brød bemandet med traditionelle koreanske salater, som er populære blandt lokale skoleelever under frokosttid.
Vi afslutter turen på en lokal restaurant (ikke langt fra Nationalbiblioteket), der vovede at tilpasse lokale retter til veganske retter. Og ja, vi vil prøve centralasiatiske køkkenets oxymoron: vegansk beshbarmak, en traditionel kasakhisk kødret, der blev til et plantebaseret vidunder.

Who knew there were so many vegan options around and under your nose in central Asia! Sayyid was profession, friendly, informative, and got us lovely food. My only complaint is that the minimum booking size is two people so it becomes quite expensive when booking for 1, might be nice to have a way for individuals to join in groups to ensure the minimum amount is met without doubling the per person cost. Either way I consider it worth the money I spent :)
We had a lovely morning! The tour brought us to different places and we tried some amazing local vegan foods that we would probably have missed out on without this tour.
This was a brilliant tour whether you are vegan, vegetarian or eat meat but want to try some very tasty food. My wife (vegan), 12-year old (vegetarian) and I spent about half a day touring markets, some local restaurants and bits of the city with Akmal. We learnt about the food, Uzbek culture, history and life living in Tashkent. It was fascinating, varied and accessible. This was our first full day in Tashkent and we gained lots of tips and ideas for our holiday. We would highly recommend it to others visiting the city
Even if you don't like mutton, you can still enjoy delicious local food with vegetarian meals. I think Uzbek people are very good at seasoning, not at the level of "well, you can eat it". It will fill you up, so please join us hungry.
The tour was amazing. It provided lots of insights into the variety of vegan food available in this otherwise meat-centric city, and along the way allowed us to discover markets and restaurants across Tashkent. Our guide Sayyid spoke poignantly about his own path to a cruelty-free lifestyle and the challenges of being vegan in Uzbekistan. It's a good idea to do the tour at the beginning of your stay if possible, to learn about places and dishes you can then continue to discover on your own. The tour is worth every penny, as it includes all transportation and an incredible amount of food. That's also why it's a good idea not to have breakfast beforehand!
Very nice tour with tasty things. I enjoyed walking through the bazaar and learning about the country's culture through food with the tour guide. It's a lot of food so go hungry
Excellent, personal, casually informal tour with good food. Akmal was friendly and knowledgeable. He adjusted to our interests and the conversation was much mote than set pieces recited to us.
This was the perfect introduction to Tashkent. We explored the city and tried amazing food. The rest of our time in Uzbekistan was much easier as we knew so much more about the vegetarian and vegan food available. Thank you!
We loved the tour! Akmal is a very knowledgeable, friendly and funny guide. Not only did we learn a lot about Uzbek vegan food, but also about the culture and the city. For us it was a great introduction to Uzbek food and the country. We would highly recommend this tour, no matter how much meat you normally eat.
I really recommend to book this Tour. Akmal is such a lovely guy and gives great insides on the uzbek (food) culture as well as many interesting facts about the City. We really appreciated every Single moment
