Last week while in San Jose (CA), my good friend “Ranga” took me for a change to have Ethiopian
food for dinner at “Zeni
Ethiopian Restaurant”. I readily agreed as I like to experiment any food that
is Vegetarian (As I say in foreign lands - No Fish, No Meat & No Chicken).
We went through the menu and
decided to play safe with their ready-made “Vegetarian Combo” (shown above). I didn’t
understand a single item contained in the combo (YE-MISER WOT ,YE-KIK ALITCHA, ATAKELT
WOT, YE-GOMEN WOT, YE TIMATIM FITFIT) but once served and tasted figured out that
all of them are names of different gravy (side-dishes). Each of them tasted like “Yellow
Dal”, “Tomato/Onion Salad”, “Green Salad” and so on. All of these side-dishes were
served on a big bread they call “Injera”
(it looked to me and tasted like a big South
Indian Dosa).
Overall it was spicy, tasty, filling and I loved it!. Thanks Ranga.
