ABOUT THE CUISINE
Tajik cuisine, with its roots in the ancient Silk Road city of Samarkand, is a beautiful blend of flavours and traditions from across Central Asia. Influenced by Persian, Turkish, and Russian cooking, it celebrates fresh ingredients, aromatic herbs, and gentle spices. From fragrant rice dishes like Palav to soft, hand-folded dumplings and vibrant salads, every meal is a reflection of generosity, hospitality, and the joy of sharing food together. Tajik cooking is colourful, comforting, and deeply tied to family and community—food made to be enjoyed with love.
