To all of my vegetarian/vegan friends to all of my borderline carnivore comrades here in Ottawa:
If you're looking to try something new, healthy, and absolutely delicious you have to check out Habesha Resraurant at 99 Montreal Rd. Ethiopian has been one of my absolute favorite cuisines for over 14 years now and Habesha has been my go to for my fixes for the past 4 years. The owners are so kind and they offer such high-quality, flavourful and nutritious food all at an extremely reasonable price.
If you're a vegetarian (not 100% sure if vegan) you have to try out their Vegetarian Platter quickly snapped with my iPhone above.
If you're hangry for some of the most succulent and savory meat you've ever had? Be sure to ask for the Lamb Tibs.
Either way be prepared to get your fingers messy because you eat these mounds of deliciousness with you hands by wrapping them up in a pancake type wrap called injera. If you like it spicy like me, be sure to ask for berber too!
If you're in a rush, this isn't the place to come. They make everything from scratch and I usually wait over half an hour to get my food eating on. But if you have good company, a good book, or some work to do, this is one heck of a gem to get your tastebuds on!
Āmeseginalehu Habesha!
Excellent food at great prices, and the friendliest service in town. It's always a great time at Habesha!
It feels like i am in addis when i ate the food there. Love all the menu specially the kifo.
