WOW...I love this place! Many years ago, I went to an Ethiopian restaurant and remembered enjoying the food.
And now there is one in my neighborhood, so I decided to give it a try.
The restaurant is small and very attractive. The waiter could not have been more helpful or gracious.
I started with their Eshkol Special Sparkling water. A most delightful, refreshing drink with ginger, honey and some other ingredients.
I decided to have the Vegan Combo dinner, which included 5 different vegan dishes, and an Ethiopian bread which was used to eat the food with, Ethiopian style, no spoon or fork, and no chop sticks (we could have had utensils, but when in Addis Ababa, do as the Ethiopians do!).
The food could not have been any better. Each dish was just as delicious as the next.
Owner, Chef Chaltu, could not have been any more welcoming. During the course of the dinner, she would leave the kitchen and come out into the eating area and speak with each table and thanking them for coming. That is class you don't see often when out dining.
Eshkol has become one of my go-to places. I give it two thumbs way up!
Next time I think I will have the meat combo plate!
