Our story

From a kitchen in Kutaisi to your table in Vancouver

Tamara grew up in Kutaisi, learning khachapuri from her mother and grandmother. In Vancouver she missed real Georgian home food, so she started cooking for friends. Friends brought friends. That is how Deda began.

Her daughter Sofiko, 9, is our chief taste-tester. Nothing leaves the kitchen without her 10 out of 10.

We are starting in a commissary kitchen in Vancouver, with no dining room yet, so for now Deda is delivery, catering and pop-ups. That keeps prices honest and the food close to how it is made at home.

“No scales. Only hands.”Tamara, on every recipe

AITamara and Sofiko are AI-created hosts who tell our story on Instagram and here. The recipes, the cooks and the food are real.
