Steam rises from a wooden table as the host slides a hot Adjarian khachapuri toward you; outside, the Kura River threads through Tbilisi and seems to urge guests to stay a little longer. The experience begins with a walk through Old Tbilisi’s winding streets—stone stairways, carved balconies and sulfur-bath roofs—before you climb to a family house where views of the city open up and the kitchen warms into life.

Steam rises from a wooden table as the host slides a hot Adjarian khachapuri toward you; outside, the Kura River threads through Tbilisi and seems to urge guests to stay a little longer. The experience begins with a walk through Old Tbilisi’s winding streets—stone stairways, carved balconies and sulfur-bath roofs—before you climb to a family house where views of the city open up and the kitchen warms into life.
Georgia’s supra (feast) is both social code and ritual: a sequence of toasts led by a tamada (toastmaster), layered with homemade wine and polyphonic singing that UNESCO recognizes as part of the country’s intangible cultural heritage. The land’s limestone and volcanic soils shape its vineyards; winemaking here traces back millennia and the hosts often pour qvevri-style wine alongside chacha. Expect hands-on time shaping khinkali dumplings and pulling chewy khachapuri while a local explains regional variations and the stories behind each dish.
Practical guidance: the event lasts roughly four hours and includes private transport from central meeting points. Wear comfortable shoes for cobbled streets and bring clothing layers—summer sun can be strong on terraces, evenings cool down. Notify the guide of dietary restrictions in advance; many dishes have meat and dairy but vegetarian options are common if requested.
Timing and etiquette matter: arrive punctually for the Old Tbilisi walk, be prepared to stand during the tour portions, and follow the hosts’ lead during toasts and dances. This combo of walking, cooking, wine, and song gives a compact, sensory primer on Georgian culture—equal parts practical lesson and memorable evening.
