Almaty is a gastronomic haven, showcasing a vibrant fusion of traditional Kazakh dishes and global culinary influences. The cuisine of Kazakhstan typically features robust ingredients such as meat, potatoes, and dairy, which are indicative of the nation’s nomadic traditions. One of the hallmark dishes, Beshbarmak, is prepared with boiled meat—commonly horse or lamb—served atop flat noodles accompanied by onions. Other notable dishes include Kazy (horse sausage), Manty (steamed dumplings), and Baursaki (fried dough balls). For those willing to explore unique flavors, shubat (fermented camel’s milk) stands out as a quintessential Kazakh drink. In addition to local specialties, Almaty offers a wide array of international dining options, allowing guests to enjoy Chinese, Korean, Turkish, and European cuisines, among others. The Green Bazaar serves as a lively marketplace where visitors can experience local treats, fresh produce, and an assortment of spices.
