Queen of Sheeba - Review - West Palm Beach - Miami - The Infatuation

"This little spot just off the train tracks in West Palm is where you’ll find the best (and only) Ethiopian restaurant in the city. The owners will make you feel so at home, you’ll be tempted to stay the night on the couch by the entrance (please don’t). photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC Pause Unmute The husband scuttles about the dining room dropping off platters flanked with rolls of spongy injera next to piles of kitfo and shiro piled high. His wife might stop by the table to ask how spicy you really want your gomen before she starts cooking it. She’s not wrong to inquire. Those collard greens aren’t for the meek, so wash it down with honey wine. There’s no parking out front, but there’s a lot around the corner on 7th and Sapodilla. Food Rundown Sambusa Whether you’re new to Ethiopian food or fluent in Amharic, start your meal here. These crispy brown pillows are filled with your choice of lentils or beef and come hotter than a Totino's Pizza Roll fresh from the microwave. photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC Kitfo The minced meat is seasoned with aromatic spices like cardamom and a spicy chili powder called mitmita for a healthy kick. It’s mixed with clarified butter and served with injera, a spongy sour flatbread. Order it with a side of shiro wat and gomen. photo credit: CLEVELAND JENNINGS / @EATTHECANVASLLC Shiro Wat Grab a generous chunk of injera to scoop and soak up this chickpea stew and all its sweet and nutty glory.
