Trying a pie with freshly caught trout in Svaneti

In Svaneti, there’s a truly unique place — the village of Mazeri. It’s known as the starting point for the hike to Shdugra, the highest waterfall in Georgia. Right at the beginning of the trail, you’ll find a cozy café that serves the world’s only fish kubdari. Traditionally, kubdari is a Svan meat pie, but here they’ve created a special twist: instead of meat, the filling is made with freshly caught trout. The fish is raised in the crystal-clear mountain river nearby and then baked whole inside the dough. The result is incredibly tender and delicious. And all of this comes with breathtaking mountain views you’ll never want to leave.
