I was on the verge of tears through the entire presentation. I am originally from Lattakia, born in LA, living in Houston TX and I find that sometimes the only way I can connect with my culture is through food and hospitality.

Proud of my origins Aleppo, Antakia, Damascus and of the 2 countries I love Lebanon and France. These are our mixed identities . Aleppo pistachios will always be the best. My favorite sweets will always be Malban, karabige and Mamounie, favorite dishes Abbar wou Rez, wara2 3enab and Kibbe.

Amen on the grape leaves!! If you haven't tried turkey gravy and Syrian dressing, that may be the best combo on the entire planet!!!

[@noursayem1499]

Je suis fière d'être Alepine d'origine

[@suheilkaspar8885]

Syria is the cradle of Civilization, because it's where the 1st Alphabet was invented !. The 1st grain of wheat was harvested and the 1st olive tree grew !. And Aleppo is the declared oldest city in the world. So no wonder it has the richest and most diverse and delicious cuisine, and that's a fact you can ask anyone who visited that city about.

[@MerhebiAroundTheworld]

It was pleasure watching your video, didn't you tried the (Koussa B Laban) ;)

[@secretthirdthing22]

my syrian grandma after i ate two full plates of food: YOU HAVENT EATEN ANYTHING

[@gd9153]

Aleppo’s name in Arabic is Halab > حلب

[@IyadJabbour_thePhArMaCiSt]

Well you would still be greeted by pomegranaDe if you go to that same place alright!

[@jeanleon7958]

[@anwar301]

Great talk. But may I ask why you name 10 minorities and fail to mention Arabs especially that the majority in the city identify as so?

[@jackbettar963]

It was more a commentary on the diversity of Aleppo, it is well known that majority of Syria is Arab. The official name of the country is the ‘Syrian Arab Republic’, so it may come as a surprise to people that Assyrians, Armenians, Circassians etc… all live together in harmony and in Syria.

[@samerman00]

Good presentation skills, but why you are deriving many Arabic cultural and lingual possessions into Arminian! Lack of integrity!

[@serioussam209]

ridiculous

[@rasmikokash318]

Thank you, Antonio, for this insightful, evidence-based and culturally profound scholarly work. All the best, Ras.
