Georgian Food and Wine

 I went to try Georgian food and wine at the London Wine Fair which was a trade show held at Olympia, May 18 to 20th, 2026. Georgian food was new to me. I love novelties. 



Georgian Food

I tried three types of food. I rated them 5 star food, top, three star food, okay, one star, not yet - try again.

Honey Cake - Top Rated

Top food was honey cake. Brown, small, looked like bands of darker and slightly lighter colour. Melt in the mouth honey flavour. Definitely one to look for. One to make yourself. Then compare your version with theirs.

The Georgian Stand

Their stand was visibly headed Georgia, home of wine, birthplace of wine. I expect they will be at the World Travel Market travel trade show held in London in the autumn off-season every year, November 3-5 in 2026 at Excel. Similar events are held in other countries.

NOTING ANNUAL EVENTS IN  NEXT YEAR'S DIARY

The next London Wine Fair is in 2027. November 3-5 at Excel. Mark the date on the back of your diary, or the last day of the year to transfer into your new diary. I make a diary for next year using a notebook. Each day I add a day's or month's date at the top of a lined notebook. so I start next year with repeated events noted.

Italian restaurant with home made pasta - Vasco & Piero's Pavilion Restaurant

Image
  Vasco & Piero's Pavilion Italian Restaurant has been our family's favourite in Central London for a long time. It's always a delightful surprise because the menu changes twice daily. The restaurant is clean, white bright and fresh with white linen table cloths. We went there again in November 2024. You can sit at small square tables for two, oblong tables for four, large round tables, or bar stools, or in a private room behind glass walls at the back. My companions chose a glass of red chianti to match the colour and intensity of their red meat dishes. I opted for Prosecco, sparkling white as a starter and to go with my white meat main course, chicken. Good enough. My husband, who is a wine educator, approved of the label credentials, the region and grape variety, and the taste. The restaurant has Umbrian items.  A member of our family from overseas wanted soup, which was not on the menu. They immediately offered to make one specially for her, a 'simple' mixed...
