TL;DR

Travelers recommend trying authentic Georgian cuisine instead of cooking familiar dishes from home — especially satsivi (a walnut-based sauce dish), but note that if you have a nut allergy, about a third of Georgian dishes will be off-limits.

What the community said

One traveler decided not to cook familiar comfort food and instead went to Batumi specifically to try authentic local Georgian cuisine.

A traveler who wanted potato pancakes decided to save that dish for when they get home, and instead focus on tasting genuine Georgian dishes in Batumi.

Satsivi (meat, often chicken, in a thick walnut-based sauce) is considered one of the tastiest Georgian dishes, but travelers with nut allergies should be cautious — roughly a third of traditional Georgian cuisine uses nuts.
