5/5 stars - A Taste of Heaven (and more) - I embarked on this food tour expecting a culinary adventure, and boy, did I get one... in more ways than one! Our guide was the perfect blend of knowledgeable and charming. The way he expertly navigated me —— through the city's hidden gems was truly impressive. And let's just say the 'tasting' portion of the tour was absolutely delightful. It was an immersive experience where I was taught so much in detail about the local culture and tastes. I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a flavorful experience that'll leave you wanting more.

- The food of this region is a remarkable fusion of tastes, shaped by the cool Caspian breeze, the aroma of mountain herbs sun-dried under the summer sky, and the bounty of fertile earth. Here, humble village plovs sit alongside refined desserts crafted from treasured family recipes, as well as time-honoured urban dishes — all forming a diverse and historic palette of flavours. Among the region’s most beloved delicacies is shekerchorek — a sweet butter biscuit that adds a festive sparkle to any table. Made by blending clarified butter with powdered sugar, then enriched with egg yolk and soda, the mixture is combined with sifted flour to form a firm dough. Shaped into balls, brushed with yolk, and baked at 175–180°C, this pastry has long been a cherished part of holiday celebrations. Another signature dish is Jorat bozbash, a hearty stuffed meatball stew native to the Absheron settlement of the same name. Tender bone-in meat, potatoes, and chickpeas accompany meatballs crafted from minced meat mixed with rice, onions, and spices. Each meatball is filled with a sour plum, rested in a cool place, then gently simmered in broth. Served with a meatball, a piece of meat, a potato, and a spoonful of chickpeas, the dish is finished with broth and dried mint, making it a fragrant and satisfying cornerstone of the local culinary heritage. Evelikli chilov, or sorrel rice plov, is a refreshing springtime dish. Dried sorrel is soaked, boiled, and squeezed, then combined with cooked rice and boiled beans. Butter is melted at the bottom of the pot, followed by a layer of rice into which raw eggs are cracked. Covered with another layer of rice, the dish is then steamed to perfection. Traditionally, evelikli chilov is served with garlicky yoghurt, enhancing its fresh flavours. These traditional dishes not only map the rich flavours of Absheron-Khizi but also preserve the culinary heritage of the region, lovingly passed down through generations. Chorat qutab is one of the dishes of Azerbaijani national cuisine. Water and salt are added to sifted flour and kneaded into a dough. 40-gram balls are prepared. Then the balls are rolled out. Camel meat minced meat is placed inside the dough and folded. The edges of the qutab are tightened. Then it is placed in an oven dish and a small amount of butter or water is poured on it. It is cooked at 170-200 degrees. The browning of the roll indicates that it is cooked. When served, sumac or pomegranate seeds are sprinkled on top of the qutab.

The Charming Man Ali - I don't have enough words to write a review for Ali. He was very friendly, professional, of tremendous help, knowledge about history of Azerbaijan and ofcourse, his communication skills were too notch. The food was fingers licking and delicious. Ali is highly recommended for the visitors in Baku who really wants to taste the local food and best person to be with in the club. Ali, you are the greatest guide I've ever met. We were three friends, but became four after meeting Ali.
