“Bourdain takes a wide-angle look at the culture and history of this country [Armenia], heavily influenced by Europe and Russia, with guides musician of Armenian descent Serj Tankian (System Of A Down), and historian/Armenian resident Richard Giragosian. Breaking bread with Tankian at the restaurant Dolmama in Yerevan, during dinners with locals, the host explores the native and diaspora Armenian populations’ survival and achievements against the odds.”
Serj posted the following on Facebook:
“So I guess the cat's out of the bag about my trip to Armenia last year. Pictured next to me is one cool cat named @anthonybourdain. Catch us on his show @partsunknowncnn on May 20 on @cnn as we cruise around Armenia in a sweet black Volga.”
