Dordoy Bazaar is not only one of the largest markets in Central Asia but also a vibrant hub that showcases the local culture, including its culinary diversity. The food history in this part of Bishkek is influenced by the Silk Road, which connected Asia and Europe, bringing with it a fusion of different cooking styles, ingredients, and flavors. The market itself is a more contemporary phenomenon, but it reflects the traditional Kyrgyzstan food culture, which is rich in dairy products, grains, and a variety of meats, although we will focus on non-cow meat and vegetarian options here.
