Rules of the Georgian feast. Tips for "beginners"
They try not to leave the Georgian guest unattended, so make sure that your plates do not remain empty, otherwise you will be offered two more hefty portions.
The toastmaster who heads the feast is one of the most respected people. During the evening, he makes a large number of toasts.
Of course, in modern times they do not adhere to the tradition of drinking every toast to the bottom. The main thing is to say "Gaumarjos" after each toast, which means "Hurrah".
As a sign of gratitude to the hosts of the feast, bring a gift - sweets or flowers. You can not bring food, so as not to offend the owners.
This may mean that you thought there would not be enough food. Remember, there is always enough at the Georgian super (feast).
