Fig Galette

"I always say that a person who cooks delicious food, it is impossible to have bad thoughts in the mind. Mood directly affects everything what we are doing. The preparation process is so enjoyable and filled with cosmic energy that when I look at the finished dish, I rejoice like a child and take another step towards a large kitchen. If you do not love cooking very much and do not aspire to profoundly study this field, you can not keep up with novelties and be exhausted. This activity is a constant exercise, mediation, pleasure and most important physical and mental exercise without which nothing is working.

Finally I would say that like never before, I am sure I am where I always wanted to be. From the beginning to the present; I've gradually overcome all my biggest fears and now I feel surprisingly determined and motivated. I really want to unite many Georgian chefs around strong and interesting ideas in the future and make our cuisine in the world market more sophisticated, modern and successful, and we have a great potential for this" - Keto Bekauri, the cook.
