US, RUSSIAN AND OSCE AMBASSADORS ATE KHASHDecember 18, 2004 - 19:39 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - As reported by the Azg newspaper, on the initiative of Russian Ambassador to Armenia A. Dryukov US and OSCE Ambassadors to Armenia J. Evans and V. Pryakhin along with Dryukov himself ate khash (Armenian national cuisine dish) at Anahit restaurant in Yerevan. Specifically, the US Ambassador tasted the winter dish for the first time. However, it should be noted that one can see on a photo in the same newspaper, where the three khash eaters are shown, that wine is poured into the glasses, while it is well-known that khash should be eaten almost exclusively with vodka. Thus, the Ambassadors have much to learn to gain an understanding of the nicety of the national peculiarities. However, the initiative itself is rather praiseworthy.
