ARMENIAN BURGER ՀԱՅԲԸՐԿԸՐ
This morning, at our local TV s news magazine section , as it is the custom the feature food was all Armenian. It was prompted because the local Armenian church is having a food fest today and tomorrow .The local priest/pastor Fr. Srepanos was the guest.
Sadly he did not give us the Armenian names of the featured dishes.
The main dishes he spoke of was Kebab, Lamb kebab, beef kebab, chicken kebab etc. When the host asked- So Kebab is an Armenian word?, the guest said -
Well, umm! It is a Middle Eastern word.
Further, as it is customary the cooking show was about HyeBurger. The chef Bill Nevins said- HYE means Armenian, so it is an Armenian burger.
From there the chef spoke about Baklava,/Paklava , explaining the difference between the Greek and the Armenian spelling .ie the honey v sugar syrup.
