Dinner in a 200 yr old room
Friends staying at the Antica in Samarkand were invited by a staff member to eat at his parents house nearby that is being renovated under a UNESCO Agreement . Iy was spectacular because so much of the rooms architecture remains intact
Dakota Bukhara offers Mughlai food , and the mguhal empire stretched over present day Pakistan too , so if they use Pakistani recipes its OK . Of course , though like all 5 star restaurants (for local food atleast) , its highly overrated . You get much better kebabs at Khan Chacha/Saleems and for mutton burra/seekh kebab Karims is the place to go . Moti Mahal beats the butter chicken here any day
