African$$

Say 'jambo jambo' (hello, hello) to this delightful spot in an otherwise unprepossessing arcade, brightened by the colours of the Ethiopian flag and owner Joseph's smile. It's the ultimate finger food; fresh ingredients and mellow flavours to mop up with lovely, nutty, spongy crepe-like injera bread. Key (beef) wot sings with chilli; doro (chicken) alicha is mild and tasty. Gomen (collard greens) satisfy simply; shiro wot is a rich sauce of roasted, powdered chickpeas, red with the well-integrated spices of Africa's ubiquitous berbere sauce. Visit on Friday or Saturday for an Ethiopian coffee ceremony.
