KHIVA

Unique & Ultimate Culinary Experience

KHIVA is the name of a 2500 old preserved city in Uzbekistan. It is a declared U.N.
heritage site & is literally called a museum under the sky. It is on the silk route, the capital
& the seat of the power of Khwarezmia.
KHIVA Restaurant is the 1st and the only central Asian fine dining restaurant in
Pakistan. Incorporated in January 2007, KHIVA has since come a long way in providing
excellent and exquisite food and other related services to its customers.
KHIVA today is a leading name in the hospitality and service industry. Besides central
Asian cuisine KHIVA serves Afghan, Balochi, Mughlai & Shinwari/ Namak Mandi
cuisines.

Central Asian Cuisine

Though the nations of central Asia are relatively new, gaining independence only after
the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, their culture is one of the most ancient and
refined in Asia. One particularly distinctive and well-developed aspect of central Asian
culture is their cuisine. Between the deserts and mountains, in the oasis and fertile valleys,
they cultivated grain and domesticated livestock. The resulting abundance of produce
allowed them to express their strong tradition of hospitality, which in turn enriched their
cuisine.
The seasons, specifically winter and summer, greatly influence the composition of the
basic menu. In the summer, fruits, vegetables, and nuts are ubiquitous. Fruits grow in
abundance in central Asia - grapes, melons, apricots, pears, apples, cherries,
pomegranates, lemons, figs & dates. Vegetables are no less plentiful, including some
lesser known species such as green radishes, yellow carrots, dozen of pumpkin and squash
varieties, in addition to the usual eggplants, peppers, turnips, cucumbers and luscious
tomatoes.
The winter diet traditionally consists of dried fruits and vegetables and preserves. Hearty
noodle or paste type dishes are also common chilly-weather fare.
In general, lamb meat is the preferred source of protein in the central Asian diet. Fat
filled sheep are prized not only for their meat and fat as a source of cooking oil, but for their
wool as well. Beef is also consumed in substantial quantities. Camel and goat meat are less
common.
The wide array of breads, leavened and unleavened, is a staple for the majority of the
population. Flat bread or naan, is usually baked in tandoor / clay ovens, and served with
tea, not to mention at every meal. Some varieties are prepared with onions or meat in the
dough, others topped with sesame seeds, kalonji etc.
