UGH! *WHY* did I come here the night before a nude photo shoot?! I knew I wouldn't be able to control myself around this delicious food....and sure enough, I beasted like a little piggie and now I LOOK like a little piggie :-(
I don't have much to compare this to -- the only other Ethiopian place I've eaten at is Merkato. The food and service were comparable, but this place has the edge when it comes to ambiance: cozy, cheerfully decorated and homey.
A friend and I shared the meat & veggie combo platter for $30 -- something like 10 different scoops of lentils, veggies and meats on a giant piece of injera (spongy sourdough pancake). Plus a basket of injera on the side. Everything was fanTAStic!!!
The only downside was, I ate so much injera and it's all puffed up in my belly now. And as mentioned, I have a nude photo shoot in the morning. Thank dog I do all that ab work at the gym...hopefully my abdominal muscles are strong enough to suck it all back in.
I will definitely be back here!
