Why go

Telavi's food market is a working part of the town, not a staged tasting. Stalls bring together vegetables, herbs, cheeses, fruit and sweets from Kakheti and nearby areas, making it a good first stop before a long lunch or a cellar visit.

Take a little time to browse before deciding what to buy. The assortment changes with the season and with the vendors who turn up; the value of the stop is seeing everyday food culture in motion, even if you leave with only a snack.
