YeItyopya Megeb teWedallachu? [Do you Like Ethiopian Food?]
 
though I have been around Ethiopians for years, I just recently gained a taste for Ethiopian food, I am addicted! and it is a fucking pain in the ass to get! I only get it once a week, maybe twice!


 



 


my favorite is Berbere and Injera, or Kita, or Doro Tebs, or Atkelt, or Timatim, but I fucking cant stand Shiro [the yellow shit above]

do you like Ethiopian food? Which is your favorite?

there is a really highly rated Ethiopian restaurant called Etete a block from the 9:30 Club (which is right at the edge of Little Ethiopia), i have not yet ventured down there, but i intend to at some point

!@#$%!, had you eaten there before?

I love Ethiopian food. Probably tied with Indian as my favorite foreign cuisine. There's a place in Portland called Queen of Sheba I really like. I used to get it at several different places in Seattle when I lived there.

Ethiopian food has been a staple of my families dining ever since my older brother did a report on Ethiopia back in junior high or whenever. Also know of this great Ethiopian restaurant and jazz club place.

I didn't even know they had food in Ethiopia.

Goat curry & Injera (with Ethiopian beer for sipping) = East African Win!

This has by far been the most positive thread about Ethiopia yet, food is very unifying.

yes, yes it does. But in reality, I feel that way about most food. it is taste and texture that separates food from shit at the end of the day.

There are many Ethiopians in Seattle. The Patriarch, His Holiness Abuna Merkerios lives there, as well as His Grace the Archbishop of the Western Hemisphere Abuna Zena Markos.

I've also had breakfast with Abune Zena Markos, he is absolutely charming.

There's a few places locally that do ace Goat curry at low low prices. And when I lived in London there were a handful of lush places. I'm not usually a fan of lentils and the like, but those Ethiopians know what they're doing with 'em.

That is EXACTLY how I feel, I do not eat vegetables under other circumstances. I will be happy to live in Ethiopia now just to get decent food at the corner market!

speaking of which while running this morning I ran into a lovely Ethiopian couple, and elderly gentleman and his wife who were also going for a morning stroll. I had seen them in passing before, but I was driving by and could not meet them, however I took this opportunity this morning, and made new Ethiopian friends in my own neighborhood! It will be SUCH A TREAT to get homecooked Ethiopian food next door rather then an hour and a half on the rails! I was just saying to myself how I need to find some local ethiopians to get some good dinner around here!
