Kirsan Ilyumzhinov: The cat did not remain hungry

As we already reported, on March 22, first President of Kalmykia, sixth President of FIDE Kirsan Ilyumzhinov arrived in Beirut on a friendly visit. Lebanese friends invited Kirsan Nikolaevich to an excellent fish restaurant located on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea.

The chef treated the guests with the restaurant's specialties. As Kirsan Ilyumzhinov wrote on his Instagram, the dinner was a success. It should be noted that now in multi-confessional Beirut, Muslims celebrate the holy holiday of spring, the beginning of the New Year Navruz, so there are few people on the streets - Beirut residents celebrate at home.

However, there are many cats in Lebanon. The Lebanese tricolour cat entered the restaurant and chose Kirsan Ilyumzhinov from all the visitors. And it made the right decision - sixth FIDE President treated the sociable cat with squid and fish. The cat, according to Kirsan Nikolaevich, did not remain hungry.
The visitors had a great time. A report on this event can be read on our main page.
