I've had Ethiopian food at least 5 times at different Ethiopian restaurants. Although the flavour is good, there is hardly any protein, but tons of carbs (unlimited injera) and veggie options. You eat with your hands, and you wrap everything with Injera. To me, it screams one-dimensional poor people food as there are FEW PROTEIN options, and not a lot of variety of textures and flavours, unlike Indian and authentic Chinese, for example. Everything is soft and mushy. It doesn't seem like a cuisine that is complex in different cooking styles and flavours compared to other global cuisines. I'll eat it if I must, but it's not the type of food I will go out of my way to eat.

Guys where ever you are do not miss a chance to have Ethiopian food! The Tef (wheat that makes the Injera) is a superfood and they also have a great variety of vegetarian dishes. Spiciness is something you have to inquire ahead as it can get from comfortable mild to razor sharp hot! The tanginess from the Injera with the full flavoured aromatic sauces are a bombastic combination and the whole Goursha story can get pretty messy and funny!

Food looks amazing and they seem like such hardworking people passionate to share their food. I do wish the guy would let the lady speak for herself though. Sheldon was trying by asking her directly several times and the guy would answer for her or bring back the conversation to him. She was the first, let her speak, mate. Still, kudos for the place and the market. I hope you continue to have success and you both get better.

Ethiopian Food is so so delicious! In Geneva Switzerland there were 2 restaurants 10 years ago, I made it a point to go for Zigni plated on injeera with little mounds of lentils spinach and meat in sauce about once a month for a while there. Seriously yummy, the people friendly and utterly delicious coffee. For my vegetarian friends there was always a good selection also. Highly recommend this cuisine.

I am surprised to see this. Top on my feed and from preview pic I knew where it was. I frequently visit this restaurant, great food, small but cozy environment. Very lovely people your will not regrate it. They also have a breakfast menu that is worth checking out. Congrats for the recognition well deserved, and thank you for reviewing this, five star.

traditionally we don't add any onion or pepper in 'kitfo' just salt, spicy pepper powder(mitmita, korerima(sometimes) and the butter and its done. if you add onion and peeper it would be more of a 'dulet' dish rather than kitfo, but i guess its not an ideal thing to market kifo with just minced beef.

I feel so much for martha. eldest, first born daughter with tons of responsibility and acting as a second mother to her younger siblings, yet she still has so much thankfulness and joy. i can just imagine the love absorbed by all who eat her food.

You guys, there's one person with different account. They keep posting, they don't like Ethiopian food and Ethiopian eat raw meat. Alone of negative comments so you can respond to them. Don't they just need your comment.

I wish I knew how to make injera. I know how to cook a fair amount of Ethiopian food, but I don't know how to make injera can anyone tell me how to make an injera starter that's 100% teff flour?
