Georgian Grub



Satellite Republic at The Punchdown in Oakland this weekend

Chachapuri or Xachapuri looks a little similar to Turkish Pide with an egg cracked onto the center top filling partially through the baking process. Хачапури по-аджарски = Kcachapuri with egg? I wish I knew what these guys were saying, cause they seem to be having fun making Хачапури по-аджарски.
SATELLITE REPUBLIC from 12FPS on Vimeo Sergei Parajanov has an interesting life story to go along with his amazing filmography. Sergei Parajanov was born in Tblisi, Georgia
.

The trio LeMo consists of Hub Rosene of the United States Anna Houter of Germany and Saba Iordanishvili of the Republic of Georgia.
