This small landlocked country (as big as Belgium) is at the crossroads of the cultures of the Mediterranean, the Middle East and Russia. Normal when his cuisine is a veritable anthology of all his influences with Greek, Turkish and Iranian overtones. A classic Armenian meal will not start the same way depending on the region in which you are located. In Western Armenia, the Mediterranean influence brings to the table the culture of mezes with its tabbouleh, its hummus or its dolmas (stuffed vine leaves) for example.

Yannick Revel: To appreciate these dishes, I advise you to take the direction of Cilicie, the Lebanese-Armenian restaurant in Bordeaux, located rue des bahutiers in the St Pierre district.
