"Don't accidentally wander drunkenly into the strip club next door and then not remember you did so until the next day when all you and your friend remember are pink neon lights and brass. Great bar!"

"Best place in Telavi for Georgian food. Ask for the home wine and at least attempt speaking in Georgian - you'll be treated like gold!"

"It's little and out of the way, and you have to deal with shepherd dogs to get to it, but it's got some really awesome (and destroyed, thanks Russia) wall icons."

"Stay on the main road past Duisi and eventually you'll come to a large dam. You're able to walk across the spillway and climb a bit to get closer to the waterfall."

"Your one stop shopping in Telavi. They've got the more obscure stuff - turkeys, pumpkins and ginger, for example - just ask nicely in Georgian and remember to haggle!"

"Cheap, clean, and friendly folks. Follow the graffiti off of Rustaveli to find it, as it's down one of the back streets. Metro stop nearby, and a bunch of awesome bars and restaurants, too!"
