About these tours

Azerbaijani cuisine is one of the more underrated food cultures on the Silk Road — lamb-heavy, herb-forward, rice-obsessed, and with genuine regional variation between Baku's Persian-influenced cooking, Sheki's walnut-filled pakhlava and slow-cooked piti, Quba's pomegranate season dishes, and Lankaran's fish and citrus cuisine. Food tours build cooking classes, market visits, and sit-down meals with local families into the standard sightseeing itinerary.

Frequently asked questions
What are the must-try dishes on an Azerbaijan food tour?
Piti (slow-cooked lamb stew in clay pots, a Sheki specialty), plov (saffron rice in dozens of regional variations), dolma (stuffed vine leaves), kutab (flatbread stuffed with herbs or meat), and pomegranate-glazed lamb. Our guides know exactly which restaurant in each town does each dish best.
Is Azerbaijani food suitable for vegetarians?
There are vegetarian options in most restaurants — herb-stuffed kutab, cheese and bread, vegetable plov — but meat is central to the cuisine. Vegetarians should flag this at enquiry and we'll identify the best options on the route.
Are cooking classes included as standard?
On food-focused tours, yes. On standard tours, cooking classes can be added as an optional extra — tell us when you enquire and we'll arrange it.
Is the food safe? Any hygiene concerns?
Restaurant hygiene in Baku is generally excellent, and the family-run restaurants our guides use in Sheki and Quba are well-established. We brief every food-tour traveler on what to expect before departure.
