2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Enjoy a private and authentic homecooked meal with your host Sophia. This is a perfect experience for anyone looking to connect with local culture over food. Sophia’s home is in a beautiful, peaceful location with stunning views of the mountains, a 10 minute drive from the center of Telavi. The neighborhood is a quiet, rural village surrounded by nature and lots of greenery. Her home is situated on an open farm area with lots of space for her cat, dogs, chickens and ducks to freely walk around. Sophia and her family moved to the countryside of Kakheti 10 years ago, a beautiful wine region. Here they started an artisan cheese factory to complement the wines of the region and to enjoy a peaceful lifestyle. Cooking is a big passion for Sophia. In 2017, she and her daughter even won the TV show ‘My Kitchen Rules, Georgia’! Now Sophia and her husband, Leo want to share their knowledge of Georgian culinary arts and traditions with travelers visiting Georgia.

What to expect

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Your experience begins by meeting your host Sophia at her home before touring her farm - here you will discover how they make cheese and see the different herbs, fruits and vegetables they grow on the farm. Then, as you sit at the kitchen counter tasting the farm-fresh cheese and sipping on wine, watch Sophia add some finishing touches to the meal you will share together. Sophia serves a mostly farm-to-table Georgian menu of her own creations using fresh, local and seasonal ingredients. Your menu might include dishes such as a cheese board of artisan cheeses along with homemade wine, a fresh salad with walnuts and roasted potatoes, mtsvadi (Georgian barbecue of grilled lamb or chicken) and chvishtari (corn bread with cheese). Your meal concludes with a homemade cheese based dessert.
