There may not be a Taco Bell for several thousand miles, but that doesn't mean office-bound Georgians who forget their lunch have to go hungry.It would take some effort to go hungry here, as you may have deduced from this blog.
Even at work, though I usually bring something from home, I often pop out back to "The Garage," a bakery located in a converted parking space. It's the green door in this picture. The lady inside sells a variety of cheese, bean and potato pies, kept warm on the oven until you show up and fork over a lari or so. The pie pictured above, warm & fragrant & stuffed with delicious mashed potatoes, set me back 50 tetri, or about 30 cents.
How are Georgians not all morbidly obese with their heavy consumption of carbs? Sounds delicious, btw.

It's an excellent question--I think the answer is tiny plates, no preservatives, lots of walking. But there are plenty of thick folks, too, and some serious beer/wine bellies!
