I always forget how far it is Chavchavadze ave. from my house in Saburtalo: I wouldn’t have said to Tako “let’s go by foot„ if it was so. We went there walking for some business at the Magti office and then she suggested me to try a good georgian restaurant for lunch. The place is called მაჭახელი (Machaxeli) and you can find different ones in Tbilisi: the one we chosed is located near Marjanishvili street. The menu was not full of different foods and it was written in georgian only: not a problem to read, quite more problematic to understand the meanings of what there’s written; but with Tako’s help I managed to order: 1 acheruli xachapuri, 2 ghvezeli kartopilit e 10 pilmeni.

Yes, it is terribly much, but I was sure everything would have been smaller: anyway was really so good, even if I couldn’t manage to eat all those stuffs, that I went out the restaurant really happy and satisfied. After that I was invited to Tako’s house: when she said me, after the big lunch, my reaction was like “nooo, your mom will give me food again!„, but I couldn’t refuse and we went there. Mom really tried to do so, but I could have just a tea without die.
On the table there was an ashtray: when I saw it I said it was nice, looking like a dice. The result: after 5 minutes her mom had already washed it and put in a little bag to give me as a present! I think next time I will say I like much something like a television. Tako’s gave me a really nice present as well: some photos she made, with a dedication behind each of them really nice and lovely; appreciated really very much.
We went then again out for a walk on the hills of Tbilisi: the view from there was wonderful, but unfortunately my camera’s battery was over and I could take just some photos with my mobile phone. Then we returned down to Tavisupleba square and we saw off; I then met my friend Mzika, talking about serious things like the was in Israel (she’s a journalist, and what a serious one!) drinking something together in a nice evening of Tbilisi.
And at last, time to go home: but since I was not happy enough, I decided to face the freezing cold and to go to the pizzeria “Fantastico”. I should say that it worthed, because the place is really nice, with live music, a beautiful waitress and a very good pizza!
