Each course highlighted the chef’s celebrated Mediterranean cuisine, complemented by exceptional pours from Tsinandali Estate, a historic Georgian winery renowned for its elegant, expressive wines and recognized as the birthplace of classical Georgian winemaking.

The evening’s menu showcased Avra’s signature classic Greek spreads, including taramosalata (caviar mousse), skordalia (garlic and almond), and htipiti (roasted red pepper feta spread) served alongside warm pita. Guests savored the delectable signature entrées of grilled lavraki, a Mediterranean sea bass prepared with masterful restraint, and pasta le crema, a delicate interpretation of spanakopita with spinach and feta. Each paired with Tsinandali Estate’s award-winning wines.
