Make sure you wash your hands well before you sit down at this Ethiopian restaurant near Gracie Mansion. There are no forks, spoons or knives. The menu has an assortment of meat and vegetarian dishes; we're fond of the Ethiopian bread called Injera, which is made from a grain called teff. You can also change the ambiance each visit, from the red room, the candle-lit room or the outside garden.
