On June 5, GEORGIA TODAY invited its business partners to a dinner at Ginger Hotel & Restaurant (49 Polikarpe Kakabadze St., Tbilisi).
On a cozy, shaded, very-Tbilisi style terrace bedecked with plants, overlooking the capital city, the GEORGIA TODAY management team hosted Terabank representative Ani Jvaridze, Aleksandre Mikeladze from Sabuko, Sofia Dvalishvili from Moma (Museum of Contemporary Art), Tbilisi Hills’ Maya Shanshiashvili, Ana Vachadze representing Biltmore, Elene Makharoblishvili from Gumbati Holding, CENN’s Ana Petriashvili, Mariam Kapanadze from the Israel Chamber of Commerce, PMCG’s Nini Metreveli, Tajo Zghenti from Halik Bank, Koka Gobejishvili from Megalab, Mariam Mestvirishvili from Alte University, Irina Zhorjoliani and Kenan Ince representing Turkish Airlines, Maka Tkhomelidze from Swiss Hotel, and Keti Zhvania, Irina Benia, and Nino Chirakadze from EFES.
Wine was provided by Winery Khareba, while the impressive dinner was prepared by the Ginger Hotel & Restaurant team under the leadership of Sous Chef Giorgi Chotorlishvili, from a menu designed by Chef Lika Gulua and guided by the vision of Irma Kalandadze, the Executive Director of Ginger Hotel & Restaurant. The accent was Apkhazuri-Megrelian, with leafy green tarragon, lettuce and tomato salads, moist and filling phkali with cornbread slices, Samegelo’s table star “ghomi,” delicious khachapuri sprinkled with fresh tarragon, and the mountain folk’s favorite meat dish, kubati. The dessert, named “PelaMocchi” was much anticipated- icecream stuffed pelamushi rounds with walnuts and dabs of caramel sauce. All ingredients were fresh and gently filling, leaving one feeling full, but healthily so!
General Manager of GEORGIA TODAY, George Sharashidze, spoke with his guests about the newspaper’s beginnings back in 2000, while the management team Natasha Chikvaidze, Sofia Bochoidze, and Editor-in-Chief Katie Ruth Davies, spoke about the various publications under the brand- GT newspaper, GT Business magazine and Where.ge tourism magazine.
The guests were thanked for their tireless work, alongside GEORGIA TODAY, to promote Georgia, to up the country’s standards to align with Western expectations, and for displaying the best of its people, traditions and culture.
