I have discovered that I love Georgian food! Bordering Russia to the south on the eastern side of the Black Sea, it is one of the old Soviet countries. Georgian food seems to be popular in Russia.
While following bad directions from the hotel to a different restaurant we passed this place and made a mental note for "another night". Eventually we realized we were never going to find the suggested restaurant so we headed back to "In Georgia".
No English menu was available, but our waitress spoke fairly well and gave us suggestions. We decided to let her order for us and were not disappointed. We enjoyed different types of kebob while being entertained by locals around us. The two men seated at the table next to us were vastly enjoying their bottle of vodka. Round after round we watched as they finished an entire bottle. In a booth sat a foursome. We were startled when the woman moved onto the man's lap and began passionately kissing him. Really, what was going on should only happen in the bedroom and what made it more awkward was that what appeared to be one of their sets of parents was seated directly across from them. This was not a short birthday kiss, rather he must have crossed a milestone. Now this was not some seedy little joint we popped into. Rather, well signed on a major road, it seems to have a good reputation. I think we just happened to hit birthday boy's big night.
