I found this restaurant due to some research. I knew I was going to be visiting Las Vegas and in addition to all of the fine dining opportunities, I wanted to see what cultural food I could find in Vegas that maybe I couldn't find in my own hometown. I know there are a couple of Ethiopian restaurants in south Florida, but I had never been to one so I figured I'd try this one out. The funny thing is that only 30 minutes before I walked into the door of this restaurant I had just finished a meal! I was at Mint Indian Bistro because I wanted to try Nepalese and Tibetan food. But as I finished my meal I saw that this restaurant was nearby. Despite being full, I ventured here for the opportunity to try Ethiopian food. To give my stomach a break, I walked from the first restaurant to this one.
Luckily, it took the food awhile to come out and that gave me the opportunity to make some more space in my stomach. My waitress was very friendly. First, she helped by explaining some of the Ethiopian cuisine. Next, she recommended a meal for me to try. Finally, when my meal came she showed me how to use my fingers to eat everything.
Naturally I tried an Ethiopian beer with my meal.
On my goal to try different cultural foods I can say that I have tried Ethiopian food.
