This cooking class was an incredibly experience and I am so happy to have booked it. The family is so kind, and the food you make is delicious. This class was by far the best way I immersed myself in Georgian culture, and I will be recommending it to anyone I know who is coming to Kutaisi!

It was a great decision to choose this evening to get to know Georgian culture, people and food. The family served a table for us, where we tasted the prepared food and wine together as a family. I believe that one evening with my family we will cook Georgian dishes and remember today. Please note that Google Maps does not display the address correctly on the map.

This was one of my favourite experiences in Kutaisi, and one of my favourite experiences all-around while travelling! The food was absolutely delicious, but what made the experience truly unique was how lovely the hosting family is. Luca and his grandparents were wonderful at helping us follow along, teaching us about Georgian culture and keeping the atmosphere lively. We learned how to make khinkali, two different types of khachapurri and Georgian salad, all with local ingredients including their own homemade cheese! The evening ended with a small dinner together before heading home. Definitely a memorable experience, I would recommend it to people travelling solo or in groups.
Cooking a feast, with a family that loves you!!

This experience was literally the most fun I’ve ever had with a group of people ever. The laughs, memories, experiences and lessons taught during this cooking class were amazing. I went with a group of three other people and Mariam and the host family were so welcoming and inviting. We made/ate Khinkali, various forms of Kachapuri, eggplant rolls, bell pepper rolls, had homemade white wine, and had a blast of a time with the host family afterwards. I loved every minute of this experience and my group and I made so many memories because of this experience. We 100% recommend this activity to anyone wanting an authentic Georgian experience who wants to have a great time eating delicious food! Thank you Mariam 🫶.

Such a great experience, the people are so welcoming and lovely. The food is made with their own products, in their home, and Natia explained very well. The food was sooo good, but what really made the evening was how loving the hosts were. All three of them made us feel home and at ease. We shared food, drinks and stories. Honestly, such a great experience. If you want to learn some of the signature dishes, and meet some locals, I highly suggest booking this class!
Super Georgian food experience.

It was an amazing experience and highly recommended! The two hosts were really nice and kind, the hospitality was at the highest level, the food was excellent and it was fun to take part in its preparation and understand a little about what it looks like in the kitchen. In addition, there was a really nice young man who knew English at a good level and helped us with communication so that the conversation flowed and our time passed in a fun and amazing way. Highly recommended!
