I miss Tsuivan more than anything when I’m away from home. So I built an experience around the dish that brings me back.
We’ll start at Chinggis Square and walk through the neighborhoods of Ulaanbaatar that shaped my life. We won’t follow a typical sightseeing route; we’ll explore the streets I grew up on, from markets and schoolyards to the railway station where I sold soda as a kid. This is Ulaanbaatar as it’s lived, not just photographed.
Then we’ll go home. My home, on the tenth floor, with the city below us. We’ll slow down over herbal tea, learn Shagai, a traditional Mongolian ankle bone game, and cook together.
You’ll roll the dough, cut the noodles, prepare the ingredients, and cook Tsuivan with your own hands, the way it’s made in Mongolian homes.
By the time we sit down, the meal is yours. You made it.
Small groups gathered around my table. No script, no rush. Just an afternoon of food, stories, and everyday life in a real Mongolian home.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Meet your host at the base of the Sukhbaatar statue at the center of Chinggis Square (Sükhbaatar Square), central Ulaanbaatar. Your host will be holding a "SEREY TRAVEL" sign and wearing a Serey Travel t-shirt. Reachable by bus, taxi or on foot from most central hotels.
The experience concludes at your host’s apartment at approximately 2:30–3:00 PM. From there, you can walk back to Chinggis Square along Peace Avenue (about one hour), take a short taxi ride, or use nearby public transportation to return to the city center.

Every street has a story. COME HOME WITH ME — We arrive at my tenth-floor home overlooking the city. We slow down with herbal tea and play Shagai, a traditional Mongolian ankle bone game. COOK TSUIVAN TOGETHER — Into the kitchen. You’ll roll the dough, cut the noodles, and cook alongside me, the way Tsuivan has been made in Mongolian homes for generations. SHARE THE MEAL YOU CREATED — By the time we sit down, the meal on the table is yours. You made it. We share it together. TAKE A PIECE OF MONGOLIA HOME — You'll leave with a full stomach, a Tsuivan recipe card, your own Shagai set, and memories of an afternoon around a Mongolian table.
