@Heni: Not sure of the Georgian stew you mention. However, you might want to check out our Georgian food article for clarification.

Georgian food is awesome, I don’t remember the name but they have breads with stew i the middle, it is very nutritious and delicious!

Cathy, you guys will have a great time in Georgia!! Great time of year to come – wine harvest and festival season! More posts coming to give you ideas of where to go outside Tbilisi! Exciting stuff! Audrey

Andy and I are planning vacation in October and we have tentative flight reservations to Tbilisi — because of your postings! We even used frequent flyer miles with good connections (of course lousy arrival and departure in Tbilisi). Thanks!

Brian: Glad you enjoyed it. The whole experience really was something else. No shortage of that here in Georgia.

Bo: I’m searching for a new liver. No training would have prepared me for a drinking duel with a 65-old woman or drinking with our guide in the mountains (look forward to *that* story in a piece we’re writing entitled “Blue Eyes, Gold Teeth: The Fabled Land of the Svans”. And yes, the food is great.

Cathy: Pouring hard alcohol would have, in fact, served two purposes: hiding the alcohol *and* disinfecting our shoes, which desperately needed it after taking a 3-day bath in rain-softened cow pies.

About the lobio: we’re working on a Georgian food post and gathering recipes from friends here, but I’d hazard a guess that the primary ingredients are beans, onions, coriander (seeds and greens) and cumin, to mention a few.

Dan and Audrey, I am so fortunate that you have shared your website with me! I have book-marked it and definitely want to spend more time with it when my literature review is done for this dissertation I’m working on….proposal defense 7/25.
you two are wonderful and adventurous and so very lucky.

DandA – What a great story BUT you must learn to pour drinks into your shoe even when it’s a sandal! What’s goes into the lobio? Ciao for now.

U should have trained more while you were here on Becherovka, Fernet and Slivovice! Though cha cha sounds like a more serious booze category 🙂 The food sounds simply great!

Dan, Audrey, This could only happen to you. I am typing this through wet eyes because I was laughing so hard. Thanks for the laugh, and keep us updated.
Brian.
