"Gathering around a table-sized injera at Aunt Yvette’s Kitchen in Eagle Rock makes for a lovely casual dinner, and even more so when you remember that the shareable vegan combo only costs $30. The giant Ethiopian platter comes lined with seven different stews and salads, including berbere-stained misir wat and tofu tibs that smell like warm spices. You choose what a la carte proteins go in the center, with our favorites being the whole-fried trout that effortlessly peels off the bone and gravy-like doro that greets your nose with its sweet spices before its spooned onto the communal injera." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
