Voyage round Armenian Culture

[Moogey]

Despina's enthusiasm set me thinking and sparked this idea.

We could each think of one aspect of Armenian culture, anything really, just one, and give one or two examples. The next person would think of another, and/or add to the examples already there.

To start the ball rolling, let's think of a fundamental aspect of our culture, ARMENIAN FOOD. Examples would be topig (yum yum) and madig. Some dishes have names borrowed from other cultures, but that does not exclude them. Who knows what gems we will discover along the way?

(By the way, there is no reason why you should not have another go, after a few others have contributed. The rules are bendable!!! )

You can fill pages and pages with Armenian Food alone.

My two picks: Tass Kebab and Mante
