My go-to restaurants, cafés, cocktail spots and wine bars — the Georgian kitchens I send every friend to, and the places the night goes after dinner.
My personal favorite. Try to go before 6 to try their khinkali — otherwise the chikhirtma chicken soup, khachapuri and many others are best. Set in an iconic location: an old wine factory that used to be owned by my grandfather before the Soviet Union. A must go.
