Summary

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Meet your host Dinara at her Tbilisi apartment that she shares with her husband, daughter and friendly dog. Sip on a refreshing drink before joining Dinara at her large open kitchen to learn to cook a traditional Georgian meal from recipes that have been passed down through generations of her family. Your hands-on cooking class involves learning to make 3 Georgian dishes made from scratch and will last about 2.5 hours. Enjoy learning about the tips and techniques involved in preparing Georgian cuisine cooking before you sit down at the table to share the meal you helped prepare with host Dinara. Your family-style meal includes dishes such as khachapuri (cheese and egg filled bread), a Georgian salad, khinkali (Georgian dumplings) or Shkmeruli (fried chicken in a garlic sauce) and pkhali (a dish of minced vegetables, nuts and herbs). Your meal will conclude with a Georgian dessert like matsoni, yoghurt with honey and nuts. A former café owner, Dinara is a city guide who enjoys sharing the knowledge of her city and culture with travelers.
