🍽 Uzbek teahouse📍 Siab Bazaar🇺🇿 Samarkand
Why eat here
A simple open-sided teahouse inside the bazaar where locals eat between the stalls, offering cheap, fresh food and welcome shade after browsing the bread sellers.
Good to know
Go before one in the afternoon for the freshest bread, and carry small cash because stalls rarely take cards.
