In Cyprus allegedly the Armenians were famous for their Cat meat Lahmacun (Lahmajoun / Lahm bi aJIN). I hope it wasnt true. I hate to imagine my lvely pussies devoured by hungry and hairy Cypriots (me included). Can anybody shed any light on this. Kafenes, you must know something about this.

Definitely not cat, but lamb was the favourable meat for the Armenians to use for the Lahmacun, I make it with mixed beef and lamb mince. I the early sixties there were rumors that KOUPES in Larnaca was made of cat meat. This kind of rumors were common in those days by other towns that were jealous of a certain traditional recipes.

Lahmacun:
Lahm Ajin it's in Arabic. Lahm means meat, Ajiin means dow the combination is Lahimajiin.
Basically in the regions of east anatolia in Turkey that has a very cose relationship with Arab speaking communities have named it Lahmacun and is used as fast food.
In Cyprus today we have the Lahmacun from Turkey and let us not forget the Hummus. This dish is prepared by chickpeas and originates from the Syrian city of Humms.

Karma, I am in the middle of organizing a classic car rally. My desk is full of maps and papers and I have a deadline to meet. I will do my best to try and design a new improved collage or flag should I say, to satisfy everyone.
