Chinkalnia

This modestly decorated restaurant full of traditional patterns and folk motifs just before the footbridge to Podgórze is an ode to moustaches and Georgian feasting. The concise menu of traditional specialties offers stuffed flatbreads (khachapuri, our fave) and hot, hearty stews like kharcho and chashushuli, accompanied by a choice selection of imported Georgian wines, beers and bottled lemonades (more like a soft drink). The house specialty, however, is khinkali - big, juicy stuffed dough satchels filled with beef, pork and coriander - and handy instructions on how to eat them the Georgian way are on each table (use your hands!). With big portions and low prices, this is a great way to make a casual dinner feel like an exotic getaway.
