Private aviation catering at NQZ

The steppe surrounding Astana shapes a food culture built on hospitality and substance. Kazakh cuisine centres on slow-cooked lamb and horse — beshbarmak, the national dish of hand-torn noodles layered with braised meat and onion broth, is the clearest expression of that tradition, and it translates well to cabin service when portioned and packed correctly. The city's markets supply excellent dried fruits from the south, wild-foraged mushrooms in season, and dairy products — kurt, the dried yogurt rounds carried on horseback for centuries — that work as cabin snacks or as a genuine local note on a cold platter. For departures from NQZ, we source through Astana's central wholesale network and plate to order, so what boards the aircraft reflects the city rather than a generic Central Asian template.

Regional Catering Menu · Astana

Astana inflight catering

Beshbarmak is the anchor — lamb or beef, braised low and slow, served over flat noodles with a concentrated onion and broth sauce, portioned into insulated cabin containers that hold temperature through boarding. Alongside it: cold-sliced kazy (horse sausage cured with spices, a delicacy served at every formal table in Kazakhstan), kurt on a dried-fruit and nut board, and shelpek flatbreads baked fresh the morning of departure. For lighter requests, marinated lamb skewers with roasted peppers and herb oil travel well in galley conditions. Every menu can be built around these foundations or adjusted to a fully international profile — the brief drives the build.
