Pasanauri takes its name from the mountain village renowned across Georgia for khinkali, and the chain’s house khinkali stays close to that original recipe. The restaurant prepares its dumplings with its own blend of spices for the meat filling.

The wider menu offers meatless variants — potato, cheese, a cheese-and-potato mix, and mushroom — making the dumpling the centrepiece of the dining experience across the chain’s Tbilisi branches.
