Emil Karimov, chef of the restaurant "Kazbek": "Lulya kebab is eaten all over the Caucasus. Where exactly it comes from, no one knows. Of course, the Azerbaijanis say - ours, the Georgians say - ours, the Armenians say - ours! A difficult conversation. But everyone knows that in Moscow, we, the Azerbaijanis, make the best lula kebab. Because we work the grill better than anyone else.
