Dining in Dushanbe: Kand
Kand wouldn't be the first place I'd recommend if you're hoping to dine the way most Tajiks do. While the quiet open outdoor dining is fabulous for couples looking to be left alone however, groups seeking cultural experiences will be disappointed. We ate at Kand on two occasions and both times it felt as if we were the only party eating at their establishment. Also regarding the restaurant environment there appeared be some renovations to the stage where I'm told performances (ballet and such) normally take place. We weren't lucky enough to see any ballet, but there was a man on a keyboard accompanied by a singer one night. Now the food is great IMO. I had trout the first time and a beef kebab the second and both were seasoned and flavored for perfection. Service was okay. I actually can't recall what the wait staff was like. There was little personality, but considering how appetizing the meals were I can let lack of personality slide. Great place to go to eat and get out, but don't look for an overly live atmosphere.
Prices range from 5TJS-35TJS.
