Tips for Gastronomy

The Injera

It is the base of all food. A fermented teff flatbread. You eat with your hands (always the right one).

Fasting Days

Wednesdays and Fridays are Orthodox fasting days; most restaurants offer delicious vegan dishes (Bayenetu).

Coffee Ceremony

If they invite you, accept. It is a long process of roasting and preparation that is the pillar of social life.
