East African restaurant · Montavilla

"A cousin of Ethiopian cuisine, Somali food’s broader international influences are quickly evident in the carb options — which might include the spongy anjara (similar to injera), other breads like japati and muufo, as well as rice and pasta. Amir’s Motherland on Glisan dishes out generously portioned Somali classics in a bare-bones setting, including beef-filled samosas, rice with goat meat in a tangy sauce, and several Somali pasta dishes. Amir’s rounds out each entree with a side salad and the traditional banana." - Janey Wong, Nathan Williams
