It seems that the work on the section of Taras Shevchenko Street, where a gastronomic space is planned, is being delayed. Initially, the project was scheduled for completion by Independence Day, then by mid-September, and now the new date is the beginning of October. However, even this seems not to be the final date.
According to updated renderings published by the Mirabad District Hokimiyat, changes are expected in the project. In particular, the bike path has been removed, and the summer pavilions for cafes have been expanded in its place. Additionally, the asphalt pavement will be replaced with cobblestone.
Recently, the mayor of Tashkent, Shavkat Umurzakov, personally visited the site to inspect the progress of the project. He provided recommendations for further improvement and advised the hokims of other districts in the capital to consider this initiative as an example when organizing gastronomic streets.
Taras Shevchenko Street, located in the center of Tashkent, is known for its rich historical heritage and architecture. However, in recent years, it has begun to lose its appeal. As part of the project, city authorities aim to breathe new life into this street, making it a place where everyone can enjoy a variety of culinary traditions from Uzbekistan and other countries.
The plan is for the street to become home to many restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and street food stalls offering a wide range of cuisines. Special attention will be given to Uzbek national cuisine, which is famous for its aromatic plov, samsa, shurpa, and other dishes. In addition, the street will feature establishments offering Italian, French, Japanese, and other world cuisines.
To create a unique atmosphere, various events and festivals dedicated to gastronomy will be organized on the street. There are plans for culinary master classes, tastings, competitions, and concerts. Street musicians and performers will create a lively and festive atmosphere, making walks along Shevchenko Street even more enjoyable.
City authorities also plan to modernize the street’s infrastructure to make it more comfortable for visitors. Modern lighting, benches, greenery, and well-maintained sidewalks will be installed. Special attention will be given to accessibility for people with disabilities.
