Once a lush Soviet resort area, Abkhazia is trying to regain its former splendor and is actively restoring what was lost and destroyed. And now the first tourist swallows have already reached the warm sea, which are met by the beaches, hotels, boarding houses and restaurants of Abkhazia.
Despite some still disorder and unkemptness, in Pitsunda and Gagra the words: "Would you like to dine?" can already meet visitors even in the middle of an establishment. And what else also attracts a traveler who is pretty tired of the sun if not hospitality and care?
Scrolling through the menu
The highlight of the program of any restaurant in Abkhazia is khachapuri. Perfectly prepared "/>
No less delight is the real Abkhaz adjika as a seasoning for traditional barbecue or eggplant with nuts. It whets the appetite and makes you ask the waiter to serve Abkhaz wine again and again - tart, aromatic, with an unusual ruby tint.

In search of the ideal
Going on vacation to Abkhazia, it is important to understand that there are almost no hotels in the usual sense of a package tourist. Alternatively, the hotel can offer a buffet breakfast, and the boarding house - four meals a day in the style of a set lunch. Therefore, the choice of an independent and inquisitive traveler is cafes and restaurants in Abkhazia, where you can taste all the best:
- The most budgetary option is canteens preserved from Soviet times, where, in the resort tradition, they prepare several first and second inexpensive dishes to choose from.
- Cafes in Sukhumi or Gagra are institutions with a higher status. They can offer fish and seafood dishes, local wines, desserts and even an evening program.
- Restaurants in Abkhazia are quite unpredictable in terms of matching price and quality of service. That is why, when choosing a place for dinner, you should study the reviews or just take a closer look at the number of guests at the tables.
