  Primary, OCR text read (pp. 327-328): at Akmolinsk, next to the Kazakh ("Kirgiz") kumys houses, "Возле хлебного базара находятся и сартовские рестораны, где продаются «манты» (пельмени), пилав и кумыс." The signboard, "a dish with manty as if flying and a fork pointed at it", is "the work of a local Kirgiz artist"; the kitchen has a cauldron for pilaf "and another, two-storey, cylindrical, for manty, in which they are cooked by steam, on saucers, ten to each".
