jonattonyeah that looks like it’s been eaten a couple of times previously mate
A list of restaurants
jonattonyeah Is that a barf-bowl JTY?
Love Ethiopian you uncultured swine! Injera is a god-gift to mankind.
jonattonyeah
I’d give that a go. What’s the grey stuff down the middle
All in.
Yogurts to cut the heat.
Yes, it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing food, but the taste makes up for it. And you get to eat with your hands like an infant. Added bonus.
jonattonyeah
It does look well tasty. What’s the bread made out of. It does look rather grey
It’s a very sour “bread” made from teff flour. It’s spongy and I’m going to guess fermented. Grab a handful and dive in. It’s typically on the bottom of the platter, as well as on the side, so it soaks up the spice-heavy, curry-like dishes.
In the US, refugees were grouped together. So Seattle has a large Somali populaiton; Atlanta has a large Sudanese population. Oakland and DC have large Ethiopian groups. Certainly thankful as the food is tremendous, if not always the prettiest.
jonattonyeah
I see. I would have thought it came with rice.
None of the spots around here serve rice. Dunno. Maybe that region is too arid to grow it? I don’t have any idea.
jonattonyeah
It seems they don’t hardly eat rice in Ethiopia but do eat a lot of Teff instead.
jonattonyeah I once went for an Ethiopian meal in North London and it was surprisingly decent. Pretty sure it was The Queen of Sheba in Kentish Town.
It was definitely presented in a more appealing fashion than that plate though.
In fairness, that’s a shared thing we had. Order ala carte and it looks better

Will let @bosstrabs deal with this, I can’t be arsed
Unfortunately, I have no real expertise on anything outside Chinese cuisine, so won’t pretend to.
However, I do know an absolute CUNT when I see one, and that’s what Smallman is.
The confit duck leg was sublime!
And the tarka daal?
Mamma mia!
Dave FEWMIN as per, love it!
