Mélange Drops Another Ethiopian-American Remix in the Form of a Kikil French Dip | Eater DC
"Since opening in September, I've been wowed by chef Elias Taddesse's Mélange, where he punches up American fast food with touches of haute French technique and traditional Ethiopian ingredients. To start February he added a Mélange-style French dip — his first new Ethiopian-American remix since introducing the city to doro wat-style fried chicken and beyaynetu (veggie platter) patties. The new sandwich starts with whole ribeyes aged in a coating of niter kibbeh (clarified butter seasoned with aromatics, herbs, and spices) and is topped with caramelized shallots, sliced jalapenos, and a senafich (Ethiopian mustard seed) cream sauce; an accompanying broth nods to kikil, a thin stew traditionally made with potatoes, turmeric, and lamb or goat. It's available in limited quantities for pickup only at $16. Mélange is also selling keto-oriented items: an $18 box with braised short rib, wild mushrooms, smoked beef fat–poached cabbage, and marrow jus, and a $9 grilled avocado salad with crème fraîche chive vinaigrette and greens." - Gabe Hiatt
This store is a GEM! (Pun intended lol). I’m always passing through the building so I stop in to see what new merchandise they have because I always find the perfect gift for my wife! She always loves what I pick as it’s all a pretty unique selection so I keep coming back whenever I need a gift. The owner is very helpful and the store has lots to choose from as far as jewelery, purses, and bags. I’ve also gotten some scarves and clothes that my wife really loved. Glad I found this place! I hope you do too!

This is one of the better jewelry stores. The staff is very respectful and the products are beautiful. They had some red and black Jasper stones that I purchased after I was released from school.
