Tommo and Megsy are world travelers who have visited almost100 countries. But, several years ago, they set down roots in the country of Georgia and that’s where they’re raising their family and working on spreading the world about the beautiful and fascinating country they call home. They tell Brent about an amazing feast called a Supra, a dumpling eating lesson, and the incredible toasts given by a person called a Tamada. Plus, they’ll talk about a restaurant whose menu is based on a 100 year old cookbook and a bottle of wine at passport control. [Ep 302]
