Today I ventured into a large Tajik owned restaurant in the middle of town. More about the premises in a cities and travel thread (too lazy to set up link as I'm tapatalking this to you).
Rassolnik - a tasty soup of veg and meat, with chopped pickled gherkins in, parsley, and a dollop of sour cream. Also in the pic, bread and green tea.
If you've followed my food threads you'll have seen these guys before: here they're called mantu. Filled with chopped meat (beef or mutton ) and onions. And another dollop of sour cream.
This little lot set me back $5. Five.
