Uzbek Food in Austin: Beef and Dill Manti on Spicewood Springs
Back in November, Regine Malibiran and shared had our first manti at Uzeats in Austin. We were at Uzeats reporting on our new Austin in a Pocket series for Tribeza, and had a really nice time getting to know the head chef and part owner, Brono.
We got to try their national pocket, the manti, which is a large dumpling traditionally stuffed with green onion, dill and beef, and served with sour cream.

The World in a Pocket is dedicated to exploring the world through the lens of a dumpling. From mandu to empanadas, spanakopita to gyoza, pierogi to Pop-Tarts, this is our love letter to pockets worldwide and the stories they tell. These beloved staples all share a similar food-inside-of-food structure, while providing a delicious way to understand our world. We are excited to bring TRIBEZA readers Austin in a Pocket, where Regine Malibiran has teamed up with TWIP co-founder and photographer Mackenzie Smith Kelley to shine a light on local pocket makers.
