“Whether you are a student of history, a lover of nature or are propelled around the globe by your appetite, the Caucasus, much like the traditional tables of their respective countries, have everything on offer: fresh produce; a balance of savory and sweet meat and grain-based dishes; and a deep, spiritual love of bread,” he said.

For 10 days in Armenia and Georgia, the journalist tried many different dishes, but highlighted the most tasty ones including 'Armenian-style' barbecue. “Barbecue isn’t only for Texas. In Armenia, khorovats are big business. Theyr’e spiced and skewered meats, often pork, barbecued on a grill and served at family gatherings.

Feast on khorovats at a quaint Armenian restaurant to experience this most traditional of local fare,” he wrote. The author also touched upon Armenian famous Ararat brandy. “Take a guided tour of the factory (with tastings, of course) and visit its museum to understand just how legendary this brandy is, and how artisan their production remains, from barrels built on site to its distinctive glass bottles,” Schultz noted.
