| - I have been to Cafe Lalibela about 5 or more times now, and my boyfriend and I LOVE their food. For those of you who are opposed to eating with your hands or are not a big fan of vegetables, Ethiopian cuisine may not be a good option for you. We took a friend and his date with us the other day, and although the girl stated she was cool with anything, we could all tell that she wasn't enjoying it. If steak, grilled chicken, potatoes and salad are the main staples on your palate, and you dislike deviating away from them, choose somewhere else.
My boyfriend and I have had just about everything on the menu, but we always come back to the vegetarian combo (number 15) as our favorite choice. The platter is for 3 people, but we usually finish the platter between the two of us. We always try to pick our favorite among the collard greens, lentils, green beans, cabbage, and peas, but we give up because they are all so good. If you are a vegetable lover like us, I think you will find your favorite among their offerings. The flavors in the dishes are all distinctively unique and delicious. I think my opinion of Ethiopian food gets better every time I visit the restaurant.
