The restaurant was so beautiful with traditional Kyrgyz design. It's nicely designed with wooden carved doors, frames and tables and chairs. The food was so delicious and beautifully presented. The ambience was very cozy. If you have time, it's not hard to sit there for a couple of hours. By this time you'd probably have noticed that in Kyrgyzstan the people in the service industry don't smile much and it's not a bad sign. It's just what it is normal in the country. Maybe out of respect they want to show they're serious about serving you, who knows. Also in this restaurant they didn't smile so much. But they'll serve you at your table like pouring water into your glass. The place was so clean and they also have some pictures and maquette that tell story about Bishkek (previously called Pishpek) and its heroes. So you can also learn about the history while enjoying good meals!
