Half
Georgian
here
💁🏻♀️
I’ve
never
been
to
Georgia,
but
my
extended
Georgian
family
has
grown
up
with
me
here
in
Canada,
we’re
basically
neighbours.
So
though
I
don’t
speak
Georgian
or
know
their
culture
fully,
let’s
say
I
know
the
food
culture
in
and
out.
As
I
grew
up
eating
it,
it’s
like
comfort
food
to
me.
Georgian
food
is
always
warm
like
the
sun,
and
yet
I
don’t
eat
it
often
enough
for
it
to
become
mundane.
I
was
craving
it,
and
there
it
was
on
google
maps,
a
10
minute
walk
away.
I
was
alone,
so
I
was
quite
nervous.
Like
yes
I
am
Georgian
but
with
identity
crises
that
comes
with
being
mixed
there
was
a
layer
of
unease.
I
knew
the
foods,
but
I
didn’t
feel
enough
to
KNOW
them.
The
staff
were
really
nice
:)
they
said
I
can
sit
anywhere,
so
I
chose
the
corner
seat.
OH!
And
man
that
entrance
door
is
FANCY!
Had
me
feeling
like
I
was
only
allowed
here
for
fancy
dinners
at
first
😭
The
chairs
are
comfy
just
like
the
food
hehe.
I
ordered
Lobio
and
Khinkali.
My
aunt
always
makes
khachapuri
so
I
thought
I’d
order
things
I
only
get
to
eat
at
bigger
dinners.
And
man
did
they
not
disappoint.
I
definitely
underestimated
the
size
of
the
Lobio.
Obviously
it’s
a
shareable
appetizer,
come
on
Emily!
But
I
got
to
take
some
home
so
whatever
😋
It’s
SO
good
though.
There’s
never
a
SET
way
to
make
Lobio,
it’s
just
always
with
kidney
beans,
so
I
love
to
try
how
each
place
makes
it.
They
all
taste
good
anyways.
All
the
same
power
and
warmth
of
spices
but
just
different
ones.They
brought
bread
and
different
sauces
to
eat
with
it.
Khinkali
was
just
as
warm.
They’re
Georgian
soup
dumplings.
They’re
GIANT
so
if
you’re
used
to
smaller
Asian
ones
like
xlb
be
prepared,
3
will
make
you
full.
It’s
slightly
spicy
and
has
a
nice
kick,
but
not
overpowering
so
you
get
tired
of
it.
Again,
the
staff
was
so
warm
and
nice,
bless
yall.
დიდი
მადლობა!
Thank
you
so
much
for
having
me
:D
