Ethiopian dishes add spice to nation's capital

The District has moved well beyond its old reputation as the capital of bland meat-and-potatoes dining, but it's still not known for its ethnic cuisines. That misperception needs to change, says Jeff Swedarsky, director of DC Metro Food Tours

Take Ethiopian cuisine. The metro area boasts at least three dozen Ethiopian restaurants -- more than in any other metro area in the country. According to the Embassy of Ethiopia, more than 100,000 Ethiopians live in the area.

Jeff,

You have no idea to the sailant tribal discourse going on among the Ethiopians in the Metropolis. We have heard that the Amharas don't go to any restaurant if the owners are not from their own tribe. This is a shame not only to Ethiopians but for all black people in the area. How can one educated person refuse to go to a restaurant just because the owner is from another tribe is beyond me. And yet again the same person demonstrates in DC for the "unity of Ethiopia". What a life of contradictions.

Despite my grief,

100,000 Ethiopians (deluded and forcefully tresspassing privacies as normal etiquette) in D.C area are obssessed in their own way of defining success while mesakia by the truth. Census Bureau?? Combined Tax Return History??? Revenue Generation History for the last 40 years??? Those are the numbers and bunchful of businesses are enjoying depreciation while appreciating it deluded. IT IS REVOLVING for forty years and less than 10,000,000 combined. Just one Egyptian, half lebanese, less than quarter Vietnamessssse so on and so forth.

What matters is the talk factory and comfort zone in the context of the peer's failure.

Meles survives such realities if you want to know the truth.

I am Ethiopian born Ethiopian responsible for my mess-age.

It is about time for the rest of the world to taste the best food on earth. The food tour fellow has embaked onto something great as far as the culinary world is concerned. From here on now let the palates and taste buds of the world enjoy what we Habeshas have been feasting for a very long time.
