Khushi Indian Restaurant in Tbilisi: A Cozy Spot on Kostava Street
If you’re on Kostava Street in Tbilisi, keep an eye out for Khushi Indian Restaurant, a nice little place serving Indian food. It’s right next to Medi Dental Clinic (my go-to dentist) and close to where the Gladius Jiu-Jitsu Club used to be. Funny enough, a few years back, this spot was home to a Czech restaurant. Now, it’s all about Indian spices and flavors.I tried their Fish Masala and Garlic Naan, and while I can’t claim to be an expert…
