Some dishes take time, and this one is worth every minute. Our Shimbera Asa Wot features homemade chickpea dumplings slowly simmered in a rich, bold Berbere sauce. Hearty, deeply spiced, and entirely plant-based. This is Ethiopian comfort food at its finest.

Soft, spiced, and slow-cooked with intention. Our Pumpkin Wot is pumpkin sautéed with garlic and onions, prepared in bold Berbere sauce or gently infused with turmeric for a milder warmth. Plant-based, full of flavour, and made the Ethiopian way.

Golden, simple, and deeply satisfying. Kek Alicha is split yellow peas slowly sautéed with onions, garlic, and turmeric. This is comfort food at its most honest.

Slow-cooked, deeply spiced, and completely plant-based. Misir Wot is everything Ethiopian cooking does best, patience, warmth, and flavour that builds with every bite. 🌿

Some dishes carry an entire culture in a single bite. Doro Wat, a chicken drumstick marinated in lime, slow-simmered in rich Berbere sauce and finished with Kibe, our spiced clarified butter. This is Ethiopian comfort food at its most honest.

No utensils needed just good company and fresh Injera.🤎
This is how Ethiopians have eaten for thousands of years, and honestly? We think they got it right.

Come experience it for yourself. ✨

The Colors Behind Ethiopian Flavor 🌶️

Ethiopian cuisine is known for its bold flavors, and it all begins with the spices.

Blends like Berbere and Mitmita are at the heart of many traditional dishes, bringing warmth, aroma, and depth to every bite.

These spices are what give Ethiopian food its rich color, unique taste, and unforgettable character — especially when paired with Injera.

✨ Which Ethiopian spice would you try first?
