    Ok we make deal. Your food is better than ours, but our literature is richer than yours hehe

    There has always been friendly rivalry between our people like siblings haha

    When I think about Armenian-Georgian relations, I think of this photo:

    Literature is more intellectual and worth then food my clever Armenian friend but I don't carry about literature as we Northern Georgians could not read and write till 19th century. Let Southern Georgian bark about their literature and about it was very beautiful and the most beautiful in the world especially compared with Armenian. I will watch you from the Northern side.

    I told it secretly that old Armenian literature is richer then Georgian. And that our historians of course know this fact but Georgian Internet warriors don't recognize and will never recognize. Because Often they don't know about it. They are not told about it in school. And other reason Georgian never recogniz anything. He is always right and always best.

    There has always been friendly rivalry between our people like siblings

    We have of course, you have better cognac.

    Ah I see,,,Armenian music and literature is rich, but I don't deny Georgians also have very rich literature and music I think one issue we always fight about is that Mesrop Mashtoc created Georgian letters, but Georgians usually deny this.

    Yes Armenian cognac is the best but you know oldest winemaking area is located in Armenia

    but why you have Turkish flag? you live in Turkey?

    There are issues, disputes or disagreements, between Armenians and Georgians, but not enough to destabilize the foundation of goodwill.

    At the moment, 3 issues about Georgians come to mind: (1) Persecution, repression and abusive treatment against Armenians in Javakheti, Georgia. (2) Neglect or outright confiscation of Armenian Churches in Georgia. (3) Hostile interactions between Georgians and Armenians, on the Internet.

    It's the 3rd point, which probably gave rise to this Thread started by a Georgian Member, and the previous Thread started by an Armenian Member.

    Sorry, not me! I'm not going to sell my Armenian Grandmother's Cuisine down the River, for a Bargain, or to Make a Deal.

    I have sacred memories about standing or sitting in the kitchen, when I watched my grandmother cook. She used to bake Armenian Lavash Bread, in the kitchen oven, and talk to me about how she was doing it. She used to say that I'd never go hungry, because I always magically showed up when the food was cooked and ready. Anyway, I'm sure that Georgian Cuisine is just awesome.

    and what we are doing with Armenians in Javakheti can you tell me?

    here I will write that your propagandists have to leave Samtskhe-Javakheti in peace. This region is the motherland of the Meskhi people and not part of great Armenia. Because of their sad history, Meskhs are in great minority there. But it does not mean its Armenian Land.


    (2) Neglect or outright confiscation of Armenian Churches in Georgia.
    Okey, but our side says there are some Georgian churches in Armenia that Armenians dont want to give them to us. And we are waiting when you give them to return your churches then.

    I never said our cuisine is bad, just that we are not that known for our cuisine. We are much more known for our arts, music, and literature than cuisine. Even our drinks (cognac and wine) is more famous. In Yerevan, you will find many Georgian, Greek, Fast Food places,,,but it's rare to find Armenian places to eat. I still love our food of course, but I just think we are not well known for it in the world.

    The best meal: tan + armenian summer salad (cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, oil) + armenian pork barbecue with greens and onions

    I personally like Georgians. They have a fascinating language, interesting dances, wonderful food, and overall a great culture.

    Why can't Armenians and Georgians not get along? We are two ancient Christian countries surrounded by Muhammadan enemies from all sides.
