The staff is very friendly but only part of them seem to understand the concept of veganism. When I picked up my tray next to the soup counter and I initially declined, explaining that I was vegan, an English-speaking staff member came over and listed all ingredients of a vegetable cream soup for me. The soup turned out to be vegan and I felt obliged to try it notwithstanding the warm temperatures outside. It was quite fine, though nothing I would come for again. We then figured out that almost all salads and steamed veggies were vegan except for a beetroot salad that looked great but had some mayo mixed into it. The broccoli cauliflower were decent, the aubergine capsicum tomato were delicious. The counter thereafter had varieties of grains and rice mixed with finely chopped veggies, plain pasta, mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, fries, and baked white beans in a tomato-herb sauce. I took a selection that was more than filling. Staff ladies stated in Russian that all of this was vegan, but: One of thes staff ladies later, however, suggested I take a potato somsa. Then the English-speaking waiter reappeared and intervened, explaining that the somsa were made with animal fat. Later on, it came to my mind that some of the abovementioned grain/rice dishes might not have been 100 safe either in light of the lady's understanding of veganism. The risk of swallowing some animal fat or butter is a constant travel companion in Uzbekistan, so I decided to not return and inquire. If you want to be absolutely certain to avoid that risk, Broccoli is not your place. Other than that, the atmosphere is nice and facilities are very clean. The fresh carrot juice was a perfect add-on. The meal was relatively pricy for the fact that it was nothing special from a vegan point of view. I paid almost 140.000 Som for the tray. They did accept credit card.
