In Azerbaijan, when the sky turns cloudy and rain starts falling, there is almost an unofficial tradition: someone invites everyone for khinkali.
Rainy and cold days are perfect for warm, filling dough dishes. And it is not only about Georgian khinkali. Azerbaijani cuisine has its own favourites, including local khengel, gurza, manti, dushbara and other traditional dishes.
Some restaurants become so popular during rainy weather that people even wait in line outside for a table. Cold weather, warm food and good conversations have become part of local culture.
Baku is not limited to Azerbaijani restaurants. Georgian cuisine is also very popular, with several restaurants serving Georgian khinkali and traditional dishes. In this guide, we will share some of the most interesting and well-known places worth visiting.
Coffee, Cinnabon & Rainy Days
For younger visitors, rainy weather in Baku can mean coffee and Cinnabon.
Cinnabon is available in several major shopping malls, and during autumn and winter many people enjoy a hot coffee with a freshly baked cinnamon roll – a simple but popular way to spend a rainy afternoon.
Whether you prefer Azerbaijani khengel, Georgian khinkali, gurza, manti, dushbara, or coffee and Cinnabon, rainy Baku offers plenty of options.
