Excursion plan
Tastes of the city of Almaty - a large palette of tastes from all over the world. Once upon a time, Kazakhstan sheltered different peoples, and each of them brought their own cuisine. The main dish on our excursion will be the Green Bazaar - the gastronomic heart of the city. There you will find traditional nomadic sweets, as well as smoked, boiled and dried horse meat sausages. For the second we will go to a restaurant serving national cuisine. Steaming beshbarmak, fragrant baursaks, sweets from the famous Almaty aport - everyone will find a dish to their taste. For dessert, I suggest going to the chocolate factory store and stocking up on blue chocolates for your loved ones. You will learn how Kazakh chocolate is connected with Moscow and why modern Kazakh tea cannot do without milk from Russia. Bright stories will serve as an aperitif. You will find out why Almaty is a city of apples, how local street food appeared and what the Turks have to do with it, you will hear stories about the cheerful gastronomic past of the southern capital. I will also show you a cathedral that resembles a gingerbread house.
