Look at me, an Ethiopian, watching Ethiopian food and getting all excited. I don't even know why!

Thanks for the positive video, though. We black people need to change the image of Africa. Much respect brother!

[@slyslife]

Thanks and anytime👍🏿

[@alimtanta2934]

This guy working in this restaurant is very professional, the way he explains everything is welcoming. Keep up the good work.

[@realhabesh7638]

BigUp Sly for that video, my understanding that the guy in the restaurant was a guide explaining how the food on the plate was made and eaten!

[@Ghp7657]

He ate his food lol 😂 but it was nice

[@goudagrishhdoe8925]

Every Ethiopian person I’ve met was like this. They are very kind and very into hospitality.

[@goudagrishhdoe8925]

@@Ghp7657 did you not hear him say that their food is characterized by sharing food from the same plate? You might learn something if you actually listen

[@devlin1676]

Lamb tibs is delicious. Also be sure to try Doro Wat chicken highly recommended and it also comes in beef.

[@slyslife]

Yeah, that doro wat should be in a future video.

[@anthonysolomon9492]

Wow the raw beef story is beast mode...a nice way to honor our ancestors..eat the way they ate while battling for survival.

That was a lot of food. Tilapia is the staple fresh water fish all over the continent. I'm curious to know what the turbo drink tasted like. Looked interesting. Not a big coffee drinker but would definitely do the coffee ceremony just for the experience.

[@slyslife]

There was supposed to be someone else, but they backed out last minute.

[@kaleabkiros1297]

much love from Ethiopia. like you said we are a land locked country so the fish eating culture is nearly non existent but in the areas with lakes and rivers, the locals live, breathe and eat fish, even raw fish like the japanese and their sashimi or sushi, so addis isnt the place for fish. and i feel like the guide doesnt really take his customers to the best places where they can showcase our cuisine, instead he shows yall like his friends businesses n'dat. but i really do appreciate your interest and effort, i hope you visit again and have a better more authentic experience. thanks
