Samsa
There is a beautiful but tragic legend associated with this dish. An incredible beauty named Samsa was waiting for her lover in a high tower. When he galloped up, she did not want to waste time going down the stairs, so she jumped out the window, thinking that love would give her wings, but she crashed to her death. The groom decided to immortalize the name of his beloved and invented a pastry in her honor, which became famous in many countries.
