Armenians adore dining at restaurants offering small wooden pavilions situated next to rivers and lakes – it's one step up from the equally adored picnic. Located on the highway to Ijevan, this place has plenty of pavilions and is popular with bus groups. The extensive menu is dominated by khoravats (barbecue). Service could be friendlier.
