From Citysearch

In Short
In the Ethiopian tradition, diners eat with their hands off big communal platters lined with edible dough. The menu offers lamb, beef, chicken, shrimp and assa (orange roughy), as well as nine vegetarian options. Highly recommended dishes include anything cooked ''watt'' style, with a sweet-and-savory blend of chili, ginger, garlic and mystery spices. For dessert, head for the destaye, a hot pastry stuffed with pistachios, raisins and cardamom and drizzled with chocolate sauce.
