πΊπΈ A Day Near Columbus: Lakeside Fun & Uzbek Cuisine ποΈπ
This weekend I visited Caesar Creek State Park near Columbus β a beautiful lake area perfect for family trips! π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦π You can sunbathe, fish, walk the dog, kayak, hike, or bike around the trails. π£ππΆπ΄ They also host weekend events like sunset viewings β check their website for details! π π About 40 minutes from the park is Chaykhana N1 Uzbek Cuisine β totally worth the drive! ππ¨ Uzbek food is very similar to Xinjiang cuisine (think hearty flavors and grilled meats). Maybe my expectations were too high, but it wasnβt mind-blowing β still solid though! π We ordered: Samasa (baked meat pies) π₯ Mixed Grill (kebabs + grilled meats) π’ Lagman (hand-pulled noodles with stew) π My favorite was definitely the Lagman β you could tell the noodles were handmade! ππ The menu has pictures, which makes ordering easy πππΈ. #LifeInUSA #Ohio #Columbus #Cincinnati #OSU #InternationalStudent #UzbekFood #LakeDay #FoodieAdventure #ExploreOhio πΊοΈβ¨
