Serj Tankian will guest on the upcoming 11th season of Parts Unknown, CNN's food and travel show hosted by celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain.

During his episode, which airs May 20, the System of a Down frontman, who's of Armenian descent, guides Bourdain through the history and culture of the country.

"Breaking bread with Tankian at the restaurant Dolmama in Yerevan, during dinners with locals, [Bourdain] explores the native and diaspora Armenian populations' survival and achievements against the odds," reads the episode's description.

Tankian and System of a Down will embark on a U.S. tour this fall starting October 13 in San Bernardino, California.
