Khavitsa with shiitake is one of Poliphonia’s signature warm dishes, reinterpreting khavitsa, a rich fondue-style preparation from the mountain kitchens of Tusheti. The restaurant plates it with shiitake mushrooms as a sharing dish alongside its natural-wine list.

Like the rest of the menu, availability is seasonal and rotates through the year.
