Thank you to B. Hamzaev - Head of Marketing and Promotion of Uzbekistan Tourism. Bekruz: Ravshans Channel: Uzbekistan Day 1: Tashkent On Day 1 in Uzbekistan we went on an ultimate Uzbek street food tour in Tashkent, including the biggest bazaar in the city, and the most massive plov (rice pilau) cooking in Tashkent. We had arrived at the airport in Tashkent at about 4 am in the morning, and at 9 am we were ready to start eating our way through the city. First we met up with Bekruz and Akbar both from the Ministry of Tourism Uzbekistan (Bekruz is the one who invited me to Uzbekistan and arranged everything for us, so thank you Bekruz, and Ravshan (check out his channel: a local food vlogger in Uzbekistan. Two of the most important phrases you should know in Uzbek are: Assalomu Alaykum - Hello / Greeting Rahmat - Thank you Bread Bazaar, Tashkent - We started this ultimate street food tour at the bread bazaar in Tashkent, a market dedicated fully to bread, with a little fruit and other things mixed in. We bought some break, some kaymak, and some fruit and then went to a nearby restaurant where they laid everything on the table for us, along with tea. Uzbek breakfast was a great way to get started. Chorsu Bazaar - The grandest bazaar in Tashkent is Chorus Bazaar, and its a perfect place to get a feel of Uzbek culture and food. We first stopped at the food court to try hanum, a type of dumpling filled with potato and somsa. Then we continued to the dome shaped iconic part of the bazaar, filled with fresh meat and spices. Its one of the coolest market structures anywhere in the world. Plov Center - We kind of had to rush out of Chorsu Bazaar because although they prepare 1, 500 Kilos, seriously, of rice plov per day, it only takes 2 - 3 hours before they run out everyday. So we got there, already one of the monster swimming pool pans was finished, but they still had a few others going and serving. Plov is the national dish of Uzbekistan, a food thats eaten on every and all occasions. For Tashkent plov, its pretty heavy on the meat at oil, with rice, chickpeas, and raisins. Also it included, qazi - horsemeat sausage which is a delicacy. It was incredibly delicious, and proper meal experience

I lived in that in 1990, during soviet times. I hate this video tourist. Shows nothing about the city. I will travel back next year 2020. I want to visit the place where I studied my preparatory on Russian language. The problem is that I dont remember the place and the street.

I visited my Parents today and had Plov. My Mother grew up near Tashkent and she was kind of fascinated by this Video, seeing some of the city, Plov Center and how fascinated Mark gets when experiencing new things. Thanks, this contributed to a nice afternoon

Hi Mark. As usual, that was a very interesting video and it was fun to watch you eat too lol. All the food looked very appetizing, and I had a chuckle when you were on the jumping castle with your son, so cute

It's okay to NOT like a food item. Not everything HAS to taste excellent. Videos would seem much more genuine if every once in a while you were not a huge fan of something.

Because of this video, when I was in Tashkent yesterday, I went to Sultan Suleyman for Beshbarmak and then went straight to Chorsu Bazaar for Hanum. It was good
