This Ethiopian eatery serves dishes like beef tartare, and chicken served in spicy red pepper sauce. All entrees are served on injera, a spongy bread that serves as a plate and silverware. Dessert offerings include Italian-style gelato and bread pudding. Chef Zenash Beyene, who hails from the province of Gondar in northern Ethiopia, once ran her own restaurant in Khartoum. The restaurant takes its name from the highest mountain in Ethiopia.
