Tashkent Vegan Street Food Tour
Beskrivning
Vi kommer att visa dig Tasjkent ovetande för turister och besökare och täcker olika delar av staden, inklusive två marknader: i den traditionella gamla staden och den livliga stadskärnan, som var och en erbjuder sin mest kända lokala gatumat. Som veganer som växte upp i denna kötttunga stad kunde vi välja de bästa ställena för lokal växtbaserad street food och ville dela med oss av vår kunskap till andra och berätta historien om vår stad på ett personligt och unikt sätt. Det betyder att vi inte vill göra det till en typisk tråkig tur att äta mat från plats till plats hela tiden. Istället skräddarsyr vi den gärna på språng med promenader, bilder, berättelser och människor. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - En del av pengarna från turnén går till att stödja fängslade veganaktivister.

Resplan
Vi börjar turnén med den äldsta och mest pittoreska basaren i Tasjkent som ligger i gamla stan och beger oss direkt till "Gluttony Lane" för den stadskända Khanum - potatisbakelser i rik tomatsås. À la lasagne men snabbare och bättre.
Efter att ha lämnat den livliga marknaden promenerar vi genom de smala, vindlande gränderna i Tasjkent gamla stad. Ta en stund att insupa den lugna takten i det lokala livet när vi märker grannskapets barn på lek. Vår destination är Xadra-kvarteret, där vi kommer att prova läckra, nygjorda ångade dumplings (manti) mitt framför ögonen på oss. Beroende på säsong kan du välja mellan härliga salta fyllningar som pumpa, spenat, potatis eller en levande grönsaksmix!
Vi åker sedan till Oloy marknad - en centralt belägen bondemarknad. Vi kommer att prova uzbekiskt runt bröd bemannat med traditionella koreanska sallader som är populära bland lokala skolelever under lunchtid.
Vi avslutar turen på en lokal restaurang (inte långt från Nationalbiblioteket) som vågade anpassa lokala rätter till veganiserade. Och ja, vi kommer att prova oxymoron i centralasiatiska köket: vegansk beshbarmak, en traditionellt kazakisk köttig maträtt förvandlad till ett växtbaserat underverk.

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
