"Chef Amy Abebe Tsegaye’s Lowertown restaurant Erta Ale offers a weekend buffet, traditional coffee and tea service, and an expansive vegan selection alongside dishes like lamb tibs, fried spiced tilapia, and curried goat stew. This is an excellent spot to try one of Ethiopia’s rare beef specialties, like kifto, a tartare dish marinated in mitmita and spiced butter; or gored gored, a dish of lean beef cubes mixed with mitmita, aromatic awaze, and peppers." - Justine Jones, Ali Elabbady
