Not the way I grew up with it. Generally speaking, it is some kind of savory pastry with some kind of filling. My family recipe is from the branch of the family that was Armenian and lived in Turkey, and it's a flaky filo dough wrapped around a cheesy filling. I've seen other Armenian places that do a more substantial dough and use meat fillings, too. I suspect that might be more the kind they'd do in the Caucasus.
