TCHAÏKHANAS

In the city centre, at the crossroads of Toktogul and Lenin Streets, you will find several chaikhanas with large terraces and tables laid out in the shade of the trees, separated by wide alleys that the staff constantly water to maintain a semblance of coolness in the hottest hours. There are chachlyks, laghmans, beshbarmak and, for those who are fed up with fat, lightly spiced Chinese-style meat skewers. You will also find other chaikhanas in the central park, on either side of the main driveway.
