"An excellent item is doro wot , chicken cooked with the same spice blend. This entre is found on virtually every Ethiopian menu in the country, but this is an especially fine version, simply a leg with the bone and the added bonus of a hard-boiled egg "

             Sheperd Express, January 24,2008

"The service here is as fantastic as the food. Try an Ethiopian beer while you're dinning--You'll probably be surprised.. Great for date night"

                          The Onion, July 3-9, 2008

"The setting and ambience is bizarre. But the food is very much worth it. We have an excellent Ethiopian place to call home here in Chicago and of the dozen or so others i've tried, this one is the only one to rival it".

Something about Ethiopian Food and Culture

Ethiopian food is eaten with fingers because it is tasteful and intimate. Traditionally, in Ethiopia, one does not eat food alone or in a separate plate. Ethiopians say, "Food tastes better when it is eaten together." Therefore, food is generally eaten in a group setting, around a wide serving basket (mesob), feeding not only oneself but also hand-feeding one another, (giving "gursha"), especially guests, as an expression of love and hospitality.
