"At Kartuli, a vintage panduri—a Georgian string instrument—hangs from the wall, waiting to be strummed after everyone has sunk a few bottles of wine from the heaving shelves. It’s all very seductive, in a way that makes you want to take a European holiday, day drink, laugh loudly, and talk about art. Couples pull up chairs beneath hanging foliage and settle in for long, lingering meals at the East Dulwich spot. The Georgian food is excellent, and the megruli kharcho and mushroom khinkali in particular have never let us down." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, sinead cranna
