Meskerem

Editorial Review

Grade A Ethiopian experience for tourists and townies alike. Safest bet for injera virgins as well as second or third dates. Artisanal leather cushions for authenticity, handcarved African wooden chairs for bad backs, drums on the walls bring full effect. Gorgeous white-linened waitresses wash your hands, try to get you sloshed on honey wine. By night's end, you're considering the Horn of Africa as you next destination.The penultimate Adams Morgan tradition, really.
