your plov is prepared over an open flame in a traditional kazan, using fresh village ingredients, natural spices, hand-cut carrots, quality rice, and locally sourced meat. The secret lies in the balance of flavors and slow cooking method that creates a rich aroma and unforgettable taste you cannot find in the city.
