ISTIQLOL
Read moreThe interior is in the Uzbek style: small private rooms and another huge one for special occasions, but where groups will easily find their place whatever their number. If you are alone or in couple, you will certainly prefer the terrace, nicely arranged and protected from the street by a few green plants and curtains. In any case, you can eat excellent Central Asian specialities: soups, salads, shashlyks, plov... The products are fresh, well prepared and the choice is varied: an excellent address for local food.
ABOU EL-SID
Read moreThis Louis Farouk-style establishment is hidden behind a heavy, studded copper door. Like the company's other restaurants, it serves delicious Egyptian and Oriental specialities of the highest quality: tajines, stews, molokheyas, grilled meats... Shisha smoking is also available. Reservations are essential, as the place, a victim of its own success, fills up fast. This is the place to go for good Egyptian food in a subdued yet friendly atmosphere. Refined service. 200% recommended!
8
Read moreIt was on the basis of Chinese luck that the Four Seasons chose to name its restaurant of Cantonese specialities. With a modern and elegant decoration, impeccable service and dim sums sums concocted by a chef straight from Shanghai. True connoisseurs of Chinese cuisine may be a little disappointed because the dishes are good but not all of them are excellent. In the Egyptian capital, the 8 remains nevertheless the best address for Chinese cuisine, with the added bonus of a majestic view of the longest river in Africa.
ROSTICCERIA SAN BARTOLOMEO
Read moreRôtisserie with typical Venetian cuisine. Enjoy on the thumb (or take away) all truly Venetian dishes, from baccalà (try the tris of baccalà con polenta) in the fish Risotto.
BEST BAGELS
Read moreIf you have not yet succumbed to Bagel's fashion - which would be unfortunate in our opinion - Best Bagels offers twice as many good reasons to crack. At Best Bagels, it's beautiful like pop art, colorful and stuffy, and it's good as to the States (incidentally, it's better to speak language). Inspired by the American delis, Best Bagels is a unique place in Lyon, where you can both buy products from the United States in the grocery store, but also live on site while having the possibility to read foreign magazines. Bagels Instructions: a small round bread with a hole in the center, cut in two and garned according to the desires. Between the classic lox (smoked salmon, Philadelphia cream cheese and pumplette) to the incredible home recipes (based on pastrami, magic chicken, goat's crotches…), bagels manage to remain delicate, light, yet consistent sandwiches. If you want to test American way of life, you can try sauces, cereals and other cakes, with original and intriguing packaging. The products can be found in the 4 Best Bagels on Lyon, located near Mercière, Ampère, Croix Rousse, Gambetta. A full-style address with wide opening hours. See, ya! See ya!
SUSHIDO
Read moreUndoubtedly one of the most exotic places in the 6th arrondissement for those who do not know yet the famous kaïten sushi, these restaurants where you catch the blue dishes that appear on a treadmill and which stacks in front of us. So, you can settle on a large and long table and begin to observe the sushi bar, unless you choose the bento, the dishes made in advance, which prices have stabilised to be still affordable for the workers in the neighbourhood. Less fun, but safer for the final bill... Indeed, on the carpet, you should count because the dishes are priced according to the colour of the border. Perhaps it's better to take the formula for not having a bad surprise. Another disadvantage, you'd better arrive earlier to have as many choices as possible and enjoy the freshness! As for the dishes, the sushi are appropriate, just like the maki and sashimi. Take away if you do not want to watch the dishes turning. An address which makes you live a change of scenery.
TRATTORIA DEGLI AMICI
Read moreA number of reasons will lead you to this warm trattoria located in the heart of Trastevere, the small square that is an enchantment, the small external tables and a simple and clean environment. The management is in care of a community made up of physically and mentally disabled young people who take care of the room, who cook, who paint and display their paintings… Try vegetable Couscous, Zucchini pasta, mint, sage or fettuccine in Sicilian.
AFSONA
Read moreA very pleasant restaurant offering modern Uzbek cuisine and tagine specialities. The map is of Central Asian and Russian influence. Beautiful wooden tables in the interior space and large shaded terrace in summer. The management livens up some evenings by scheduling folk music concerts. In short, a very pleasant place, rather cheap considering the quality and portions offered and in a tastefully chosen décor. It is also possible to stop there during the day for an espresso or tea.
CHARCHARA
Read moreA typical tchaikhana on the banks of the Ankhor Canal. We eat outdoors, in a kitschy decor as possible, with its fake waterfall. In fine weather, Uzbeks frequently come here for weddings and end the evening with dancing. And if this is not the case, the management regularly organizes traditional music and dance shows. You don't get too much out of the beer and the chachlyks, but in the end, it's a very nice address, authentic, cheap and where, for once, the atmosphere is still there.
OLIMPIYA
Read moreThis establishment is ideally located in the park next to the Ankhor Canal. There is nothing special about the interior room, but the tables outside are the most popular. Lunch under the trees or dinner under the stars: a restaurant that seduces both Westerners passing through and Uzbeks, many of whom rent the restaurant in fine weather for weddings. On the menu there are Uzbek specialities and some more western dishes. We recommend plov and bechbarmak. A good outdoor address in Tashkent.
BASILIC
Read moreA terrace in the summer, an interior room with a rather successful decoration, and in the plates a Mediterranean kitchen. A chic address that offers, in addition to tasty pizzas, some good pasta recipes, seafood and good Italian-inspired dishes. The products are well selected and you can order a Milanese escalope without worrying about a vague piece of breaded fat. It's expensive, but it's the price for good food in Tashkent. The wine list offers some good labels.

THE CLUB / AGUMP
Read moreNeither private nor confidential, this "Club" (which translates as agump in Armenian) is an address that has always been very popular in the Opera district and has not gone out of fashion.

Animation guaranteed, especially in the evening when the basement converted into a basement piano bar.

ARTASHI MOT
Read more"Chez Artashès" (the name of the restaurant), located behind the cathedral, offers a choice of grilled meats and kebabs(khorovadz) which have made it a great success. The meat is tasty and the service is fast on the first floor as well as on the more intimate second floor. The quality of the khorovadz and other grilled meats with mushrooms has made the reputation of the place, where it is better to reserve if you want to taste the specialities. Such a success that there are "Artashi Mot", more fast-food, on Spendiarian street in the north and Yervant Kotchar street.

CANTINA DO SPADE
Read moreOne of the city's oldest osterie, this little neighborhood canteen is in the pure Venetian culinary tradition. It's best to reserve in the evening, as the three charming little indoor rooms fill up quickly. No terrace in summer. Follow your desires and affinities and let yourself be carried away. It's a sure bet for quality and authenticity. And if you've never tried baccala (salt cod in cream sauce), you can go there with your eyes closed. Ciccheti are also very popular.
ZARZOUR

Similar to a canteen, there are several dishes that change every day, each one composing his own plate as he sees fit. Everything is homemade and it is possible to compose a vegetarian plate.

The kebabs are the best in town: fresh meat, impeccable cooking and spices just right! As for the atmosphere, we eat comfortably seated in the shade of straw huts, on chairs or armchairs, around a refreshing central courtyard. The central park is just a stone's throw away, for a digestive walk after an invigorating meal. It's a long shift, but it's worth it!
