Description

As you know, one of the most essential things in every country is to explore its local cuisine. Every nation has its unique dishes and secrets. Azerbaijani cuisine is one of the most renowned and mouthwatering cuisines in the world, thanks to Azerbaijan’s strategic location between the East and West. This great location offers an exceptional opportunity to develop a national cuisine with local touches, featuring specific herbs and spices that enhance the flavor of the food. During this tour, we will provide you with detailed information about the main dishes of Azerbaijan and their rich history. We will also try to give you the chance to taste some street food and explain the story behind items like qutab, pirozhki, and doner.

Knowledgeable guide, passionate about food and Azerbaijan

Ramil was very thorough and knowledgeable about Azerbaijan, Baku and local cuisine. We toured, tasted and discussed the history of food and culture. In such a short period of time, I gained a deep knowledge and understand of Azerbaijan and the foods of the land. Delicious and fun. Thank you for such a thorough tour.

Great tour with Ramil

Ramil was a wonderful guide. Explained us the different regions and tastes in Azerbaijan, of course, the tour is only informative, with no food tasting. We understood the different customs, traditions, and food of the different regions. Ramil will make you feel as if you have tried all those foods. Thank you, Ramil, for such an excellent experience
