00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.253
♫ Gonna roll it into a log, rollin a pizza

00:00:04.253 --> 00:00:05.954
♫ It's from Armenia ♫

00:00:05.954 --> 00:00:09.371
(light guitar strumming)

00:00:10.976 --> 00:00:13.237
- It's kind of like, near
the middle east, right?

00:00:13.237 --> 00:00:15.298
- I drive by Little Armenia all the time,

00:00:15.298 --> 00:00:17.131
and it smells amazing.

00:00:22.193 --> 00:00:24.938
- I love any food that
can be the adult version

00:00:24.938 --> 00:00:25.997
of Lunchables.

00:00:25.997 --> 00:00:27.677
- Sort of like a meaty fruit leather.

00:00:27.677 --> 00:00:29.137
It looks like my tongue.

00:00:29.137 --> 00:00:30.908
- This is something
that I would wanna have

00:00:30.908 --> 00:00:31.760
with like a beer.

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:33.427
- Very subtle spice.

00:00:37.888 --> 00:00:38.721
- Oh, the lettuce makes it.

00:00:38.721 --> 00:00:40.096
- Yeah, you have to have
it with the lettuce.

00:00:40.096 --> 00:00:42.656
- It kinda reminds me
of ketchup fried rice,

00:00:42.656 --> 00:00:44.525
that my mom made as a kid.

00:00:44.525 --> 00:00:45.416
- To each his own.

00:00:45.416 --> 00:00:49.583
- Why can't more things be
delivered on little leaf spoons?

00:00:52.224 --> 00:00:54.282
(laughs)

00:00:54.282 --> 00:00:56.384
- That tastes like it
came right off the nipple.

00:00:56.384 --> 00:00:59.616
- It tastes like salty,
watered down yogurt.

00:00:59.616 --> 00:01:02.234
- I could dip a cucumber in
this, and just go all day.

00:01:02.234 --> 00:01:04.584
- One would expect something
that looks like this

00:01:04.584 --> 00:01:08.751
to either be sweet, or taste
like milk, and it's neither.

00:01:10.395 --> 00:01:13.167
- This looks like a
zestier matzoh ball soup.

00:01:13.167 --> 00:01:16.128
- I like how gentle the broth
is, it's just a whisper.

00:01:16.128 --> 00:01:20.295
- It feels like I'm alone in a
bathtub, reading a good book.

00:01:21.186 --> 00:01:22.019
Does it not?

00:01:22.019 --> 00:01:23.746
- Do you eat soup in the tub?

00:01:23.746 --> 00:01:25.922
- What kinda meat is it?

00:01:25.922 --> 00:01:28.669
- [Guy] Lamb
- [Girl] No.

00:01:28.669 --> 00:01:30.819
- I like that a lot of this
food has been like low carb.

00:01:30.819 --> 00:01:32.712
- This is like, the
ultimate feel good food,

00:01:32.712 --> 00:01:34.678
I feel like every culture has something

00:01:34.678 --> 00:01:38.761
that they want when they
come home on a fall day.

00:01:40.589 --> 00:01:44.269
- Dude, I know pizza, and this is pizza.

00:01:44.269 --> 00:01:45.517
- Feel like if I came home from school,

00:01:45.517 --> 00:01:48.964
and my mom had made me this,
I would just be like yes.

00:01:48.964 --> 00:01:50.136
- (bleep) yeah, mom.

00:01:50.136 --> 00:01:51.666
Lahmajun, baby.

00:01:51.666 --> 00:01:53.753
- It's more peppery.

00:01:53.753 --> 00:01:54.586
- Mmhmm.

00:01:54.586 --> 00:01:58.094
- Yeah, the pepper, the
meat, the lemon, the onion.

00:01:58.094 --> 00:01:59.805
- This demands to be rolled up.

00:01:59.805 --> 00:02:03.472
- My pinkies need to
be up for this taquito.

00:02:04.515 --> 00:02:07.997
- This is kind of like, the
sweetness that I'm used to,

00:02:07.997 --> 00:02:10.206
because in Japanese cultures, it's like,

00:02:10.206 --> 00:02:12.368
very also subdued sweetness.

00:02:12.368 --> 00:02:14.201
- Ah, this looks good.

00:02:15.306 --> 00:02:16.825
Oh, it's warm.

00:02:16.825 --> 00:02:18.706
- This looks like Donald Trump's hair.

00:02:18.706 --> 00:02:20.847
Or quite possibly the most
delicious thing I've ever tasted.

00:02:20.847 --> 00:02:24.180
- Feel like I'm eatin' a sweet hairball.

00:02:25.528 --> 00:02:27.695
(gargles)

00:02:28.744 --> 00:02:31.577
(speaks Armenian)

00:02:37.925 --> 00:02:40.233
- It tastes like what it smells like

00:02:40.233 --> 00:02:42.816
to walk into a Christmas store.

00:02:43.704 --> 00:02:45.442
- All my organs are tingling.

00:02:45.442 --> 00:02:46.952
- Went straight to my armpits.

00:02:46.952 --> 00:02:50.112
- This like, opened up
my nasal passageways.

00:02:50.112 --> 00:02:52.082
- Man, Armenian people
like to party, am I right?

00:02:52.082 --> 00:02:54.162
- I've lived throughout the
middle east, and I love,

00:02:54.162 --> 00:02:56.821
um, Arab culture,
there's a lot of overlap,

00:02:56.821 --> 00:02:58.170
so I've really enjoyed it.

00:02:58.170 --> 00:03:01.717
- It's all something that you
would gather over a big table,

00:03:01.717 --> 00:03:05.134
and just share and have a good time with.

00:03:05.978 --> 00:03:09.717
- There's no weird stuff,
it's meatballs in soup.

00:03:09.717 --> 00:03:11.667
- This coulda been baklava,

00:03:11.667 --> 00:03:13.909
but then you cook it in a
completely different way,

00:03:13.909 --> 00:03:16.029
and you have something that
tastes just as amazing,

00:03:16.029 --> 00:03:19.293
and a completely different
like, flavor palette.

00:03:19.293 --> 00:03:21.876
