Having visited Abkhazia, you must definitely taste southern fruits, vegetables, cheeses and offers from local cuisine, because only there you will understand how the Abkhaz dishes are really prepared.
You should definitely try the Abkhazian meat. Beef is used to prepare this dish with tomato sauce and local spices. Speaking of meat, one cannot but recall the next product - Abkhaz wine. On the recommendation of local residents, it should be bought only in stores and it is better to start with a red wine tasting. But, if you prefer exclusively white, there is also an abundance of it here, because the wine production plant located in Sukhumi is famous for its high quality.
Another national dish is hominy. This is corn porridge and not many will like it. The porridge is very bland, so it is served with smoked cheese.
Khachapuri can be used not only with cheese, but also with meat. Going to try this dish, choose a cafe in which you will have to cook khachapuri. Freshly prepared khachapuri tastes significantly different from those that have been lying for half a day.
Trout is found in local rivers and in almost all. It is cooked immediately after being caught. In restaurants and cafes, it is served fried and baked, despite the fact that the fish is the same, the dishes taste very different. If you are an adherent of healthy food, it is better to order trout baked in foil, its taste will not be as bright as fried, but even more bland, but it will look like fresh steamed fish.
Cheese can be bought safely at local markets. Although it is called "home" it is hardly so. Real homemade cheese is prepared in small quantities, only for oneself, and therefore its cost can be very high. This is due to the fact that cows do not produce much milk due to the local climate. But market cask cheese is no worse than homemade cheese and is definitely worth a try.
