Where: Awash
947 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10025
Why: In a city blessed with a lot of really good Ethiopian food, Awash delivers just a bit more
What: We always suggest ordering an appetizer. You can’t go wrong. A safe bet for all is the sambusa. For the main course, the staff is always willing to offer suggestions – don’t be afraid to ask. Our suggestion for starters – Awash Tibs (for meat eaters) and Shiro Wat (for vegetarians).
Honorable Mention: Queen of Sheeba (650 10th Ave, New York, NY 10036)
