Holiday supra — a Georgian feast plan
სუფრა
A full menu for 12: pkhali, lobio, khachapuri, ojakhuri, walnut sauces, and the toasts that hold it together.
This is a full Georgian feast plan for twelve people. It takes all day. You will need help. The result is a table so full you cannot see the tablecloth.
