Tyubeteyka

Almaty


With greenery-clad partitions granting patrons an illusion of privacy, this long-standing local favourite titillates local taste buds with a cornucopia of Central Asian favourites: several different kinds of plov, manty with pumpkin (autumn only), grilled meats... Wash it down with shubat (fermented camel's milk).
