This is my first time to the beautiful country of Armenia. This country, and it’s people, know how to eat! We’re taking you on a 24 hour STREET FOOD tour in the capital city of Yerevan. Today we will learn about the long and complicated past of this small landlocked country. From the rich history to the devout religion of its people. Armenia has a lot to learn about, and we will be learning about that together in today’s episode.
Our menu for the day includes homemade “msho dolma” a dish originating from “western Armenia” or present day Turkey. Bulgar and chopped beef is wrapped in a vine leaf to create an incredibly delicious bite. Next up it’s off to see how traditional Armenian gata is made. After what feels like endless free samples at Yerevan’s famous GUM Market we head to Vostan restaurant to taste more traditional Armenian cuisine including melt-in-your-mouth lamb.

What happened Kabob & Lavash naan. That's the main draw, not?
Looks so Turkish. 😋
4:43 ay cırığ ağzında “dolma” deyirsən. “Dolma” sözü var eRMƏNİ dilində?😂
That looks more like Gaga with my favorite tea. Fresh mountain thyme tea ❤
Armaynia in the Corkus? Never heard of it 🤔
❤❤❤
Dude, you just got fed a whole lunch there at the market. That’s amazing. Hopefully, you bought some stuff from the vendors. It looked so good.
What a biased, ignorant, kind of traveller are you? Have you actually researched by yourself why the Armenians are "murdered" or it is from ear to ear nose you got on your day 1?
This video has like 10 ad interruptions. Insane.
Thank You For Coming In Armenia (im from there)
Thank you for showing are beautiful country do the world🙏🏻🙏🏻
Armenians steal food as they don’t have unique kitchen, rolled eggplants with nut souse inside is authentic Georgian 🇬🇪☝️food!
Armenians started to prepare some 10-15 years ago when first Georgian restaurant opened!!
Dolma is Greek 🇬🇷☝️

Amei Armenia, ta no coração ❤
Ebaaaa fazendo chá com HORTELÃ e Tomilho.
our cuisine influenced them. dolma is an armenian word never forget that. that's why the turks changed it to solma ahahha but no one ever called it that 20 years ago, maybe turks I dont know im not a turk

They gave you samples so you could decide whether to buy. Hopefully, you bought something — and didn’t walk away thinking you were special or that it was about your personal aura.

Իմ Հայաստանը❤Ապրես տղա ջան, որ խոսում ես Արցախի հայերի ցեղասպանության մասին,թե ինչպես են թրքերը հայերին սպանել ու ուզում են Հայաստանն էլ ցեղասպանել
If you ever come back to Armenia, you should definitely try khachapuri!😋🤤
