Food: Tasty tradition in every bite
The creativity found in imaginative dishes like the Veggie Utopia with Trout is simply spellbinding. The Injera, described as flavorful, delivers a soft, spongy relief infused with a perfect tang. Don't even get us started on the Awaze Tibs, their mind-blowing flavors have been heralded as life-changing. That being said, freshness and portions remain a pick of the draw, while the variety could use a slew of poultry options.
