7 Great Ethiopian Spots in NYC
"The popular Makina Cafe food trucks serve Habesha food, which includes both Eritrean and Ethiopian cuisine and culture. The original truck is parked at Fort Greene Park Friday through Saturday from 11am to 9pm, and it’s the ideal place to grab not-boring picnic food. There’s also a truck in LIC that’s open Monday-Saturday for pick-up only, but note that it’s in an industrial area with nowhere to eat nearby. No matter which protein you choose for lunch (we like the beef tibs or the vegetable combo option), get the injera as your base. Makina’s injera is heavily fermented, sour, and you’re inevitably going to want more of it to sop up your gomen and miser. You can also order delivery directly through their website.
