| - Ethiopian food is something I just crave and it's been a good while since I've had my fill. Abyssinia did a great job of reminding me why I love it so much.
On this visit, we knew exactly what we wanted and found it easily on the menu.
#10 Vegi-Combination (#s 3,4,5,6,7,8,9) $11.99 - This is a great way to experience a large variety of typical Ethiopian vegetarian options. Although 7 were listed, we actually received a 8 different kinds.
#3 Abyssinia Salad "Special salad with tomato, onion, jalapeno, touch of fresh garlic with our secret Abyssinia style salad sauce." - This is a refreshing salad that was probably the first to be finished.
#4 Ater Kik Alicha "Mild yellow split peas cooked with onions, oil and garlic with a touch of turmeric and subtle blend of herbs and spices."
#5 Yatakilt Alicha "A delicious vegetable: Boiled chopped cabbage, sliced carrots, and simmered with onions, garlic, ginger, and vegetable oil."
#6 Yemisir Wot with Red Pepper "Split red lentils are stewed with onion garlic, pepper, and a blend of Ethiopian herbs."
#7 Yemisir Wot with Turmeric "Split lentils are stewed with onion, garlic, and a blend of mild Ethiopian herbs."
#8 Collared Greens "Chopped collared greens simmered in a mild sauce of oil, onion, and herbs."
#9 Shiro "Roasted and powdered chick peas are simmered in our unique, hot and spicy berbere sauce with vegetable oil served with injera."
There's just something about the way the spices are utilized in Ethiopian stewed dishes that make it all so tasty. Soaking it all up with injera makes it such a great meal.
The highlight of this dinner was the kitfo, of course. Since discovering kitfo, I just love it.
#9 Kitfo "Finely chopped, ground beef with spiced Ethiopian butter, homemade feta cheese, mitmita (spiced red pepper) served with injera. (Served raw, mild, or well done.) $11.99 - Amazingly good. That's all I can really say about it. We ordered it raw and I like it with the accompanying red pepper for that little bit of heat.
Overall, their veggie combination and kitfo portions are very generous. I could easily compare their portions to some of the other Ethiopian restaurants in town and will say theirs is very large. It was only the Husband and I during this meal, and I still had leftovers for two lunches following. Don't be shy about asking for more injera too.
There were a few other diners on this Sunday evening, and two waitresses. When we walked in, we just stood around for a bit until someone told us to sit wherever we liked. Once we started eating, both waitresses were attentive and asked us often how everything was. I'll definitely return again.
