rev:text	I decided to visit this restaurant based upon the lone review here on yelp. Also, my uncle married a lady from Ethiopia, and I was curious about the cuisine. We arrived around 10:00 on a Tuesday night, and the place was pretty much empty. We were the lone non-Ethiopians in the joint. The surroundings were nice, but relatively spartan. Our server, who obviously saw that we were clueless, was very nice and offered suggestions on what to order. We went with lamb tibs and a beef dish of some sort. OK. Things are going well so far. I'm drinking my beer, life is good. The beef entree arrives on a big, metal plate. There's also a basket with five or six napkins in it. The food is sitting on this big pancake-looking thing. No silverware to be found. WTF???? Where's my freaking fork??? The server, sensing our confusion, unrolled one of the napkins to reveal not a napkin, but another one of those pancake thingys. Holy crap! I get it, you rip off part of the napkin (which has a very strange texture, like a sponge), to scoop up the delicious morsels sitting on the pancake. OK, that's funny. I'm a fucking yokel from North Dakota. TEE HEE HEE. You can stop laughing now. Really. I'm a rube, we get it. OK...the food was delicious. A bit spicy, but in a good way. The lamb tibs were a bit charred and had lots o' gristle, but were very flavorful and had a nice sauce to accompany them. Very nice. Service was at a leisurely pace, and the server was very nice and attentive. The tab was about $30, and I had three beers. CHEAP AS HELL! I asked the server what the bread was made of, she said sunflowers, but I didn't buy it. I subsequently learned the bread is injera, which is made out of a grain called teff. Who knew? I ain't never seen none of them there teff farmers out here in NoDak, no sireee!!!! Wheat? Check. Barley? Check. Flax? Check. Teff? Um, Nope. I'm looking forward to hitting an Ethiopian restaurant on my next trip to the big city (Mpls/St.Paul, Denver, etc...) and would return here on my next visit to LV. Closed Circuit to Laura B: You COULD have explained what the napkins were for. Just sayin'.
