The book is so visually stunning and evokes such a strong emotional feeling in me that I feel like carrying it everywhere and showing it to everyone I meet. Many of the recipes are similar to food in parts of Southeastern Europe and the Levant. I can't wait to visit Uzbekistan.

Great cookbook with a lot of delicious recipes. Since I got it for Christmas I haven't yet run into a recipe where I was unable to find the ingredients, and I haven't had any issues in the prepwork either.

I have absolutely no comment on the recipes; I was reading this for the "stories" part of the subtitle, and I enjoyed the glimpses of people, places, culture and especially food from a wide array of places across central Eurasia, from Tblisi to Almaty.

This book is beautiful. It has gorgeous pictures and lovely insights into the wonderfully exotic countries in mid Asia region. Can't wait to try the recipes!

Based on reviews and Food52's Piglet tournament... I wanted to love Samarkand, but it just didn't do it for me. However, it does have an awesome recipe for khachapuri, a cheese and egg filled bread I adore.
