Yet, it is the menu at ZOR that truly steals the spotlight. It is a veritable journey through Uzbekistan's culinary treasures, presenting an enticing array of dishes prepared with time-honoured recipes. The star of the show is the Uzbek Plov, a mouthwatering blend of rice, vegetables, and tender meat. The hearty Shurpa soup warms the soul, while freshly baked, crispy Samsa delights the palate. Succulent steamed Manti unveils a delightful surprise with every bite.
For those with an affinity for meat, ZOR boasts an impressive selection of Shashlik and Kofta, served atop Lavash bread and accompanied by marinated cucumbers and onions. Dessert enthusiasts are not forgotten, as ZOR offers classics like Napoleon, Syrniki, and Waffle Rolls adorned with condensed milk and nuts.
