We had two or three lunches in Khujand. I’ll just make one post for our lunches here as this was some of our first Tajik food.

We had two salads at the first lunch which you can see in the first photo. Both salads were really good. I think they make some interesting combinations in their salads.

The salad on the left was meat, beans, tomato, peppers, lettuce, and onions.

The salad on the right was beets, raisins, and walnuts.

The salad in the second photo was also really good. It was dill pickles, beef, olives, tomatoes, corn, wild mountain onions, green beans, lettuce, and chives.

The soup in the third photo was meat and vegetables with lemon, sour cream, and dill. Yes, it was quite tasty.

I had to throw in the fourth photo. It was still warm here, upper 90’s, but the beer was only .67 cents US. What a bargain!

You can see that we were still eating kabobs in the last photo. They were beef and lamb with onions and basil and very delicious.
