Ashgabat - Post Report Question and Answers
What do people who suffer from environmental or food allergies need to know?
Food allergies are going to be tough here - I don't think there is a good level of understanding about allergens and cross contamination, so anyone with serious allergies will need to be very, very cautious. - Jan 2024
Despite Ashgabat being a modern(ish) city, it is still in the desert. There is TONS of sand in the air during the spring and summer. If you have food allergies - just know the translation in Russian and Turkmen and hope that the restaurant cares. - Feb 2016
