The Guide to a Kosher Visit to Baku
Baku, Azerbaijan's capital, blends striking modern architecture with an old town that's a UNESCO World Heritage site - and a Jewish community that has lived there continuously for centuries.
Where to eat kosher
7/40 restaurant is near the central synagogue and serves Jewish-Azerbaijani cuisine, while Rimon Kosher offers an Israeli menu.
The Old City
Icherisheher, the walled city, is a UNESCO World Heritage site worth a few hours of walking.
A less conventional destination, but a surprising and accessible one - with kosher food available in the city center.
Stay in the kosher area of Baku
Baku does not have one obvious Jewish quarter. Rimon Kosher (kosher restaurant listed on the site) is the anchor - book somewhere near it rather than picking a random part of Baku.
To count as a booking, finish it in the same window after you click - it isn't saved for tomorrow.
