Ethiopian food plus ambiance

Rated this place:

Platters of injira flatbread, and colourful, well-spiced simmered meat and veg dishes make for a perfectly satisfying communal meal on a chilly night. And Addis Ababa's fine cookery gets served up in dim, cozy surrounds, amid wafts of frankincense, coffee, laughter, and sometimes live music. When I went for my birthday, they even treated me and several of my friends to complimentary Amarula. Delicious.

That beautiful scent

Rated this place:

I had seen this location several times and finally a friend suggested we try it out. Once we entered the cute little space, the scent of incense burning calmed us down and got us ready for a relaxed and delicious food experience. The owner selected a variety of great dishes for us and we ended the night with their delicious coffee.

One giant plate of delicous

When my friends and I first stepped in for shelter from the snow, the first thing that struck me was being surrounded by warm, vibrant colours. We were greeted by a friendly waitress who recommended meat combo (lamb, chicken, beef) and veggie combo (chickpeas, and other stuff I forget) for us beginners to Ethiopian cuisine. What we got was a gi-normous plate with everything in it, lined with injera, a rubbery doughy bread that resembles naan in appearance. So delicious, forget about using utensils! Did I also mention there was a live band? Turns out that it included 2009 Juno nominee Julian Fauth. There's live music here every Wednesday and Friday, so check it out!

A fun night out with friends - it's good to get a big vegetarian combo platter so everyone can share. it's true - there's no cutlery and you eat the food by scooping it up with pieces of thin, spongy bread. they have different salads and curried lentil dishes and it's all delish.
