Kakheti Restaurant Featured in Business Insider

A new article on the Business Insider website lists 28 of the best, most remote, under-the-radar restaurants around the world, as named by the World Restaurant Awards. Business Insider quotes a representative from the World Restaurant Awards saying "The Off-Map award is for restaurants in a remote location that are off-the-beaten-track and worth the journey."

This year's awards will be officially announced in February, but Business Insider reveals a sneak peak at the list, which includes the restaurant The Crazy Pomegranate/Gizhi Brotseuli.

"This restaurant is situated in the vineyard of a cult Georgian wine producer" the caption simply reads, sharing an Instagram post of two bottles of homemade house wine. 

The restaurant is connected to John Wurdeman's Pheasants' Tears  winery in Sighnaghi. The website explains the concept, "The Crazy Pomegranate is a restaurant opened in Spring of 2018 located amongst the vines in the Pheasant’s Tears Winery. We are open by reservation only (minimum 10 people) for tastings and meals and offer a creative spin on Georgian cuisine using the finest seasonal ingredients from our farms, fields, and neighboring villages. Chef Ketevan Mindorashvili’s creative kitchen paired with rare natural wines while gazing across the vineyards on the backdrop of the Caucasus mountains creates an unforgettable dining experience."
