Update
--
Had
to
come
back
here!
Finally
had
the
chance
and
we
were
not
disappointed.
While
we
were
not
greeted
by
the
same
person,
our
experience
was
similar.
COVID
has
not
been
kind
to
the
restaurant
business,
so
some
adjustments
were
to
be
expected.
In
this
case,
lamb
dishes
are
off
the
menu.
However,
all
the
rest
is
still
there,
and
still
just
as
tasty
as
we
remembered
it.
We
again
ordered
a
sampler
plate
and
the
Ethiopian
Coffee.
When
the
food
arrived,
we
were
surprised
to
see
it
served
on
a
dish
with
different
compartments
for
each
item
and
no
Injera
at
the
bottom.
We
asked
the
server
about
that
and
was
told
that
most
of
their
clientele
do
not
understand
Ethiopian
food
or
customs
and
so
they
ended
up
throwing
away
most
of
the
Injeras,
and
therefore
decided
to
switch
serving
modes
to
minimize
this
waste.
She
also
told
us
that
-
since
we
knew
the
right
way
-
we
should
ask
for
it
to
be
served
traditional
style
-
on
the
Injera
-
and
they
would
be
very
happy
to
do
so.
As
we
were
waiting
for
our
food,
and
enjoying
it,
some
other
people
came
in
to
order
and
it
was
obvious
that
Ethiopian
food
is
quite
a
novelty
to
most
as
the
customers
were
asking
many
basic
questions
about
it.
The
server
answered
them
very
patiently
-
only
drawing
the
line
at
requests
for
samples!.
Several
people
ordered
rice
instead
of
Injera
which
we
found
odd,
and
when
we
asked
the
server
about
that,
she
indicated
that
explaining
how
Injera
is
made
(fermented
teff)
made
people
nervous,
so
she
calls
it
bread
and
they
offer
rice
as
something
most
Americans
are
more
familiar
with
-
even
though
it
is
not
done
that
was
"at
home".
Coffee
was
great,
and
prices
are
still
very
reasonable.
Can't
wait
to
come
back
yet
again!

What
a
great
find!
We
were
looking
for
a
lunch
place
and
found
this
thanks
to
Google
Maps.
Good
thing
as
it
is
rather
unobtrusive.
We
were
the
only
patrons
and
the
owner
could
not
be
nicer.
She
greeted
us
warmly,
explained
the
dishes
and
their
policies,
and
took
great
delight
in
answering
our
questions.
We
got
sampler
meals
to
taste
a
greater
variety.
Food
comes
out
quite
fast
as
most
of
it
is
stewing
to
absorb
flavors.
And
flavors
are
fantastic!
Each
of
the
dishes
is
mounded
on
a
section
of
an
injera.
You
get
more
of
the
fermented
bread
to
use
to
scoop
up
the
food.
The
various
sauces
help
hokld
everything
together,
but
a
great
pleasure
is
to
tear
up
chunks
of
the
serving
injera
at
the
end
and
eat
it!
The
owner
was
kind
enough
to
prepare
the
traditional
Ethiopian
coffee
for
us
as
well.
This
included
roasting
the
beans,
geinding
them,
and
then
pouring
them
along
with
the
special
spice
in
it
to
flavor.
Altogether
an
excellent
meal
and
experience!!
