A Taste of Ghenet in SoHo

While Gothamist first had Ethiopian food several years ago at Meskerem, our most vivid memory of Ethiopian has to be Ben Stiller eating it in Along Came Polly (yeah, we rent every new release on Netflix no matter how bad). Over the weekend, we went to Ghenet with a bunch of other people, which is perfect if you're eating Ethiopian. We ordered plenty of food, which came with a couple of plates of injera.

Pictured above are the engouday tibs (sauteed mushrooms seasoned with spices) and several entrees which include the yebeg tibs (lamb) in the center, the shimp and scallop tibs on the right and several vegetarian dishes. One delicious appetizer not pictured is the misir injera, a toasted injera with misir spread that is nice and spicy.

Where do you like to get your Ethiopian food?
