About this experience
Pilaf is a legend of Central Asian cuisine, and of all its variations, the Samarkand version is considered the best. In a cozy apartment, you will be greeted by a hospitable hostess, introduced to the traditions of making the 'right' pilaf, and invited to the set dastarkhan. In Samarkand, pilaf is prepared in many establishments from 12:00 to 13:00. Our master class takes place daily, at any time convenient for you!
