The 10 Best Restaurants In St. Paul 2024 - St. Paul - The Infatuation

"When it’s time for a casual group meal, bring everybody to Bole for pillowy pieces of injera made for scooping up different stews. The table should split the golden-fried beef sambusas before getting to work on the meat combo: spicy doro wat with tender drumsticks, sega wat that’s just as rich but made with chopped beef, and yebeg alicha that has a nice turmeric-garlic flavor on every chunk of lamb. The combo also comes with a chef’s selection of three vegetarian dishes, like yellow split peas or green beans, to balance out the proteins. An extra side of injera is a must, so you don’t harbor a grudge against the friend who ate the last piece of spongy bread." - stacy brooks
