Food of Baku
Azerbaijani national cuisine is rich in various recipes and ingredients. Like related cuisines, it is dominated by meat and vegetable dishes. When you come to Baku, try such traditional dishes as dolma (stuffed lamb wrapped in grape leaves), khamrashi (national soup), lula kebab, and dushbara (Azerbaijani dumplings). And of course, don't miss the opportunity to try the local pilaf - it really is incredibly tasty.
For dessert, you can have sweets such as baklava, guimak, or firni. And Azerbaijan's national drink is definitely sherbet.
