What do You Think Georgian People Eat at a Georgian Restaurant?

[@seustaceRotterdam]

[@roselior7021]

@levanoniani2671 The best? No. far from it. But it's still good cuisine. But don't compare it to the worlds top cuisines. For example World Taste Atlas rankings of 2022-2023 put Georgia in the list of worlds 50 best cuisines, but far behind the nr 1-2 Italy/Greece. And not just in ranking. also in score in the same ranking. While Greece and Italy score extremely high as score and ranking, it leaves nr3 and so on onwards in the dust with score. And Georgia is ranked 26. Which is good. definitely. Because there are 196 nations on earth. But let's stay grounded and fair.

Funny enough she might actually know that. Grapes are toxic to dogs. So maybe she smelled it and identified it as a no no and so left...

Personally I think that when she licked the table & proceeded to chew, it was just the reflection on the table. (She was making like a little girl having a tea party with pretend food until mama brings something non messy to make her experience more realistic "come on mama put some down here within my reach!"😂❤

[@mygirldarby]

​@gabrielles1851 for many years my black lab and I ate grapes together at night. I was shocked when I read they were "toxic" to dogs. They weren't toxic to my dog...she lived to 15. Once I read grapes were toxic, I only shared two or three with her each night, but she ate hundreds of grapes in her life. I don't think they are as toxic as people say. I wouldn't risk giving them to a dog, but I just didn't know they were supposedly bad for dogs for the first 10 years of my black lab's life and by then I knew they weren't toxic for her. I think people overdo the toxicity thing woth dogs, but I guess it's better to be safe. The truly toxic thing for dogs is commercial dog food though. It will shorten their lived by 1-3 years and gives them cancer and diabetes. Always cook for your dog and give them lots of vegetables. Just make sure the foods you give them aren't "toxic." The stuff they put in commercial dog food is truly disgusting. Don't look up "rendering plants" if you don't want to know what's in that kibble.

@@Dosadniste2000 Sadly I agree with you. Wooden spoons, because they have to be so thick, are honestly just cumbersome.

Loved this so much Beryl. I'm a vegetarian from India and just like you, didn't expect to see much apart from meat and cheese but this had me so pleasantly surprised. Those dips look really good! The bread looked like a cheese naan and lobio made me laugh because there's a bean in India that we call 'Lobia'. I wonder if there's a culinary connection somewhere...

[@george-and-gracie7996]

There might be. Georgian has a lot of loanwords from different languages and I have noticed some similarities. For example the Georgian word for bread is "puri". So maybe "pani puri" is related to it since it is also a kind of bread?

There is an obvious historical cuisine connection between India and Georgia through Persian Empire. Same style of dips, a lot of fenugreek and saffron, flatbreads, young cheese and, I presume, authentic Georgian cuisine is also rather spicy. Even differences are telling, for example, georgians substituted tamarind with sour plums and used crushed unripe walnuts as a neutral carb base instead of rice.

It’s so interesting what that girl said that in Georgia orthodox Christians observe the lent with vegetarian food, we do with vegan (also an Eastern orthodox country), no animal products at all.

[@godnimrod]

It is vegan in Georgia too, she did say vegetarian, but that's incorrect, in Georgia you usually have vegetables, Lobio, or Lobiani which is kind of a pastry where you put Lobio inside, but in that case it is more like a paste rather than a stew. And on some days I think you're allowed to have fish also, not sure if that's considered vegetarian or not.

[@minime7375]

@@godnimrod No, fish iis considered meat but it’s only allowed on certain days during the lent🙂 Thanks for the explanation

[@b6983832]

Veganism is a western ideology that requires that no products of animal origin are used fot any purpose - including things like wearing leather shoes or taking pictures on film (film contains gelatin). This has nothing to do with Orthodox lent, where in some areas, even olive oil is prohibited for some days during the lent. It is not completely true to say people 'go vegan" during the lent, as the rules are much more complex, and there are big differences between different Orthodox churches in different countries in traditions.

​@@cookingwithkimbap4432being a virtue signaling cry baby at your age is actually insane. Get over yourself.

​@@cookingwithkimbap4432I say this in good faith, not to tell you off or be angry but to hopefully help you reflect. I tried to word this in a nonconfrontational way. Please forgive me if I haven't as wording and social cues are not my strength. There is a grammatical difference between furry (adjective), and Furry (noun). Idk if the OP is an original English speaker or not, but either way they may or may not know about Furries. And obviously they were using the adjective form meaning an animal with fur. Maybe you should work on your context clues in reading comprehension or maybe you need to pause to fully think things through before you react, or maybe you need to know you don't have to judge and police other people that don't follow maybe ridged and narrow likes and opinions. You can always step back, and step away. If you don't like something you can just close the window. You don't have to judge or scold. Thank you if you've read this far.

I loved the added tention through Asha and how you did not aknowledge het begging gesture. My doggy is very similar in looks and demenour.

The puppy and Anna's kitten are the best thing in this video 😍

I borrowed a Georgian cookbook last year! So tasty. Walnuts are only nasty when they're not fresh. I can't get fresh ones from the supermarket though. :(

[@berkeleyfarm]

This all looks amazing. (Also loving the animals hanging out. Anna's cat is as cute as your Asha!

[@desiinamerica]

Your little partner was the highlight for me in the video! What soulful eyes! What breed is she? Wow never knew Georgia had so many veggie options. Will definitely explore the Georgian cuisine. Thanks for the VLOG they are always informative & entertaining for a foodie like me.

I'm an American southerner, and we make a pickled style cabbage relish called Chow Chow that we put in beans all the time. (I prefer it with greens, but it's most traditional with beans!)

[@matesonik]

Met quite a few Georgian people through my work. All of them were awesome, at the same time very friendly, very welcoming and very fierce. Hopefully I'll visit Georgia soon. About that bean stew with pickled cabbage, it's a winter staple where I live (Istra, Croatia). We call it "jota". We also make a bean stew with added corn, "maneštra z bobići". Seeing similar foods to ours, but from so far away, made me smile.

because of the war in Ukraine there is now a Georgian restaurant in my city (Bucharest, capital of Romania). this video is an amazing list of tips on what to try next -- other than kachapuri and hinkali

[@BubsyMupsy]

Oh my God! This episode made me hungry! Also reminded me of some similar Bulgarian dishes!

[@zoeeleftheriadis1213]

Such a unique cuisine!! It's such a surprising mix of ingredients and techniques. Really shows it's geography, but such blends of cultures and climates and trade routes.

[@Sp-qu8wx]

Thanks Beryl for trying our food! This made me happy and emotional ❤

[@proanimali]

Please include Asha into all of your videos. She does take my attention from you a bit, but she's also the light comic relief, the way she looks at you hoping for more to "fall" from the table. And she's such a sweetie-pie! Also, I MUST try Georgian food. Thank you for that perfect video!
