Vegetarian Combination Platter
A spread of lentil, chickpea, and vegetable stews over injera — the dish that defines the Ethiopian dining experience and where this kitchen's depth shows
VVG
Tibs
Sautéed meat (typically lamb or beef) with onions, jalapeño, and spices — the go-to for meat eaters at any Ethiopian table
Ethiopian Coffee
If the "cafe" side of the menu is taken seriously, expect a traditional coffee service — dark, unfiltered, served in small cups with or without spiced tea
