In Tbilisi they have a bakery on every block. E. Reese's favorite is the one that makes sweets. Mine is the Tonispuri guy! He has a big round cement oven that sits on the floor. He takes his dough, puts it on a board and slaps it on the side of the oven. Can you see them cooking inside? When they are done, he has a long stick that he pulls it off with. He hands it to you hot and you get to nibble on it all the way home!
This is the finished product. Georgians put it in the middle of the table and you just yank a piece off and eat it with any meal. It makes good sandwiches and toast. It only costs 50 cents. Because it's made fresh - it only lasts a few days. (It is pronounced Tony's Puri - so I think of Tony every time I buy it!)
