Bring wet naps to dinner at this traditional Ethiopian cafe, where food is made to eat with your hands. The decor is limited to wood paneling and cheap wall art, but what the restaurant lacks in ambience, it makes up for with exotic foodstuffs. Orders are served with injera, a sourdough-type crepe. Diners select several meat or vegetarian fillings from the menu and wrap them inside pieces of the crepe. Look for spiced beef, shredded fish, lentils and collard greens among the choices, or opt for ready-made combination plates big enough for an entire table to share.
