Georgian Dumplings at Eshak, City Walk
Update: Eshak is sadly permanently closed.
Eshak was a restaurant on City Walk that served Georgian, Uzbek, Armenian, as well as European and Middle Eastern foods. It was our go-to spot for khinkali, juicy soup-filled dumplings from Georgia. On the podcast, we went behind the scenes to watch how they’re made, and then learn how to eat them from Michael, Eshak’s General Manager.
