Tashkent – A City of Flavor
Besh Kozon
For a true taste of Tashkent, head to Besh Kozon, where you’ll find one of the city’s most iconic dishes. Much like Plov Center, this restaurant specializes in the preparation of Besh Kozon—a slow-cooked stew made with an assortment of meats (typically lamb, beef, and chicken) and vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and onions. The name “Besh Kozon” refers to the five large cauldrons used to cook this delicious dish in a communal and hearty fashion. It’s perfect for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the rich, flavorful traditions of Uzbekistan, served alongside freshly baked bread for the ultimate comfort meal.Plov Center
As the name suggests, Plov Center is the place to go for the best plov (pilaf), Uzbekistan’s signature rice dish. Prepared with seasoned rice, tender meat, carrots, and spices, this dish represents the heart of Uzbek cuisine and is typically enjoyed in a communal setting, with locals gathering to enjoy it in the most traditional way. Whether you’re new to Uzbek cuisine or a seasoned traveler, Plov Center is a must-visit in Tashkent for a true local experience.
