KANTORA 19. Akhaltsikhe. Georgia September 22

in #hive-163772last year

So after enjoying my little adventures, thirsty, hungry and foot sore it was definitely beer o'clock. But where?

From what I had seen there was very little choice of eateries and certainly bereft of a macadees.

Down a few dusty back streets, by accident, I stumbled across KANTORA 19. There are no fancy dan signs, just a hand pained name on a wall; nothing to suggest it was probably one of the best eating/drinking places I found in the whole 3 weeks!!

Just a gate in a brickwall through which I could see some bits of street art. That grabbed my attention and drew me in, like a moth to a flame.

At first I thought it was someone's back garden!

Then I saw it and realised I had found an oasis.

I made myself comfortable; as the saying goes, "The first two didn't touch the sides". That kept the young waitress busy!

At the third I can report that it was a crisp refreshing and nicely chilled Georgian Pilsner.

All this snapping has made me rather peckish. Beer n Pizza, have I died and gone to heaven?

That had to me in all honesty, sorry Dominoes, Papa Johns, pizzahut et al. But that was the best pizza I have ever eaten,

I mean c'mon look at all those jalapeños for a start. Hot spicy with gallons of tomato sauce.

So as the sun began to set it was time to settle my bill and find the fucking hotel I was staying in

6 beers 1 pizza all for 47 Georgian Lari the equivalent of just under £15.

See, it is just a hole in the wall

Oh! and there is that big fuck off castle I decided not to visit earlier.

Sort:  

I would definitely visit that castle! 😂 How long have you been in Georgia? It seems like you've been posting about it for months 🙂 I wish I could take such long vacation 😉

Lol. I I was there for three weeks last September Armenia and Georgia theresas so much of interest I will be uploading for awhile yet! Lol

Nice photos - also of the caastle. It is always lovely when you find an unexpected oasis and then if they have good food - wow!!! the day is made. I hope the pizza was not too hot/spicy.

It was perfect, thank you, love it hot and spicy actually!

Always, after a busy day, especially if you had more sights to see at the end of the day, a beer is very useful, just to cool down and relax.

Yes spot on, with that

Beer and pizza goes so well. The feeling I get from this combination I honestly can't describe with words.

Thanks for reminding me of my combo

Cheers @pazartesi thanks for stopping by, glad I have awakened your taste buds 😂

But that was the best pizza I have ever eaten,

In all honesty, it doesn't look that good.

You turn your nose up at macadees! So I guess you ain’t nothing but a food snob! 👍

macadees is pure plastic, don't fool yourself!

Well if that’s plastic yummy scrumpy in my tummy

Awesome find… these are the best discoveries. Even some art on the walls.
Looks like a good time after a long day of discovering.
Happy new week @grindle 👋🏻😊
