Masgouf

Masgouf , is a Mesopotamian dish consisting of seasoned, grilled carp; it is often considered the national dish of Iraq. The Iraqi capital city Baghdad prides itself on making the best masgouf, with the Abu Nawas district on the shores of the Tigris river, "dedicated" to this dish. Nonetheless, one can find masgouf all over Iraq, especially near the Tigris-Euphrates Basin. Outside of Iraq, masguf is more or less popular eastern parts of Syria, especially in the regions bordering Iraq, such as in the Raqqa Governorate, which is crossed by the Euphrates. It is also seen, at a lesser scale, Turkey, such as Nusaybin and Cizre, on the Iraqi border.
