A former alpine ski racer and national champion, Shota is also passionate about food. He learned to cook from two of the best chefs – his grandmother and mother! He lives with his family in a beautiful, bright, spacious flat overlooking Tbilisi. The famous tower atop Mtatsminda Park is visible from their front balcony. Being in the national ski team, Shota got to travel around the world and had the opportunity to taste food from different cultures.
