• Here look at delicious food!! (📸: @feijaoviajante). Just kidding this is gonna be about dope music suckaaaas... Selam Selamino Seyoum (@selaminomusic) joins us for #Meskel on Saturday 9/29, with DC-based keyboardist Ashebir Gebremeskel. And of course dance superstars Fendika (@fendikaculturalcenter)..... A pioneer in the heydays of Ethiopian popular music in the 70s and 80s, Selamino was lead guitarist of the seminal Black Soul, Ibex and ROHA bands, which at various times contained #Ethiopian/#Eritrean superstars like #AlemayehuEshete, #MahmoudAhmed, #TilahunGessese, #AliBirra, @AsterAweke, and #TekleTesfazghi. ROHA was built out of the remnants of Ibex after it disbanded during the communist era, thanks in part to the leadership of Selamino. These bands were the musical icons of Ethiopia – they served as the backdrop to masses of concerts and shows that were proportionally as important to the country as The Jackson Five, Rolling Stones, Beatles, were to The West. All in all Ibex and ROHA produced over 250 albums during its career. Since the 90s, Selamino has been a tireless performer among the Habesha community in DC. In the past decades he has collaborated with old and new Ethiopian and Eritrean greats such as #MulatuAstake, #GetachewKassa, #NhattyMan, #HaileGebru, and Betty G, as well as NYC-based performers such as Tomas Doncker. Join us on 9/29. Food, drink, and vendors. Dtls and tix in profile link.

  • The Nile River spreads its wings over a 1.5 million sq mile basin, with a flow converging as the White and Blue Niles meet in Khartoum in central Sudan, and meanders in a line all the way through the country on the way to Egypt. -------- Khartoum is a dusty expansive metropolis full of insane traffic, amazing coffee, and some of the kindest, most accommodating city folk in the world.

  • #SpikedSpices Finishing up our cocktail lineup are some originals: Tosign Toddy – the Ethiopian margarita, using thyme and ginger TOSIGN tea. Tosign is used as a herbal tonic in Ethiopia, so it seems natural to make a gentle cocktail out of it. Pushkin – An Ethiopian white Russian in honor of a slightly black one. Allegedly Alexander Pushkin’s great grandfather Abram Petrovich Gannibal was taken from his home in Eritrea as a child back in the 17thcentury and raised in the court of the Tsar, eventually becoming a prominent member of the court. While Gannibal’s origins have been disputed in recent times, Eritrea and Ethiopia still claim this ancestry for Pushkin and his legacy is visible in street names and statues in both countries. Anyway, great cocktail! With hand roasted Bunna and Suf, Ethiopian-style sunflower milk. Shai Correnti – our original cocktail. Simple and refreshing, using Wush-Wush black tea (Shai) leaves hand-picked from the mountains outside Addis Ababa.

  • Brunch is great. Ethiopia is great. Plants are great. What happens when you combine three great things into one singular menu? Probably a black hole, so far we’ve been ok though. Ethiopian brunch happens every Sat/Sun 11-4. This is a Habesha Breakfast, a neat delicious combo of some of our main entrees. Kosta is sautĂŠed swiss chard, Butecha is crumbled savory chickpea flour dumplings, a perfectly complex combo of sweet, spicy, and umami. Duba Firfir is crumbled injera mixed with berbere sauce and chunks of fried kabocha squash. Add a dab of Ergo, homemade cashew cream, and you are good to go for your weekend. Comes with Kita (not pictured), a roti-style flatbread. Vegan, Plant-based, delicious. ... ... ... ... #Brunch #EthiopianBrunch #Brunchporn #Vegan #Veganbrunch #whatveganseat #Ethiopia #Bushwick #nycvegan #comfortfood #plantbased #Ethiopianfood #Brooklyn #Willyburg #foodporn #foodie #habesha #everythingiseshi food photos: @ahlgrensbilder

  • Ethiopia has long been known for Tej, honey wine, but its grape-based wines are a nascent but fast growing industry. Vineyards are popping up in the fertile Awash Valley, spurned by investment from abroad. Castel Winery on Lake Ziway supplies a line of delicious wines by growing blended grapes imported from Bordeaux, France …  We carry their Acacia line of Medium Sweet wines in a Red, White, and Rose. The Medium Sweet Red has a fruity note with a mild sweetness and goes well with berbere. The Medium Sweet White has a peach aroma and mild sweetness. Medium Sweet Rose has notes of citrus and strawberries. Castel also makes the very popular Rift Valley Merlot, nicely spiced and slightly dry. All wines are $8 per glass and $32 for a bottle.

That is only a drop in the bucket for the number of commuters in the city, and the lines have not operated without some controversy, but it is an optimistic beginning for many as the city works hard to develop its infrastructure. ---- From South Africa, we feature the @StellarOrganic line, a delicious line of vegan, fair trade, and organic wines from Namaqualand.  The Pinotage is a dry yet fruity medium/full body red with an apple and citrus finish.

You might ask why would we start talking about Ethiopian beers by mentioning a Kenyan beer? The answer is, I dunno. Ok hush, ANNYWAY! Tusker is a bold, tasty lager, not bitter, not hoppy, slightly sweet, and like most East African beers, it is pale in color. Just $6!

  • Ok now we're talkin!! Meta Premium Beer has one of the best stories of the bunch. It is brewed by Meta Abo Brewery, which sources its water from an ancient and holy spring called St. Abo, outside of Addis Ababa. The flavor is noticeably crisp, light, and refreshing. St. Giorgis Lager is top dog among Ethiopian beers. It is on the sweet side with a light pale complexion. St. Giorgis Amber is one of the few darker beers in Ethiopia. It is sweet with a deeper complexion than the lager and goes great as an after dinner dessert beer. Bedele Special is another crisp, pleasant lager with a bit higher alcohol content (5.5%). Plus it has a colobus monkey on the bottle. Enough said. Harar Beer is a favorite, not only because it is made in the ancient walled city of Harar, but because it is actually delicious. Citrusy overtones and light sweetness that finishes well.

  • You don’t have to park up in an Italian restaurant the night before a race. Get a group of friends and find that one Ethiopian restaurant in your town...The world’s top marathoners will tell you there’s a superfood boost behind Ethiopian cuisine: The spongy fermented flatbread at every meal, called injera, is made from teff, a high-powered grain rich in protein and iron. Interview with Bill Bradley, @mensfitnessmag, Nov 2014 Vegan Ethiopian food is one of the best ways to carb up before a run. Big heaps of veggies, healthy fats, and extra injera give the necessary nutrition and vitamins to get ready for the upcoming challenge. Injera is packed with low glycemic complex carbs and iron. By eating it with the combo dishes your body absorbs more injera than by eating it alone. In no time you are absolutely stuffed, but not bloated or immobilized. The proof of the food’s effectiveness is in the people -- many of our Ethiopian and Eritrean staff at Bunna are or have been marathon runners. This year if you are planning to run, try pre-gaming with Bunna CafĂŠ. Thanks to @firstrun and local running crew @blackrosesnyc for their support. Good luck next week.

    You don’t have to park up in an Italian restaurant the night before a race. Get a group of friends and find that one Ethiopian restaurant in your town...The world’s top marathoners will tell you there’s a superfood boost behind Ethiopian cuisine: The spongy fermented flatbread at every meal, called injera, is made from teff, a high-powered grain rich in protein and iron. Interview with Bill Bradley, @mensfitnessmag, Nov 2014 Vegan Ethiopian food is one of the best ways to carb up before a run. Big heaps of veggies, healthy fats, and extra injera give the necessary nutrition and vitamins to get ready for the upcoming challenge. Injera is packed with low glycemic complex carbs and iron.

  • We designed the wall behind our bar to follow the map of early Lalibela. Each rectangle represents one of the eleven churches, while the two shelves depict (n to s ) a tunnel from Bet Giorgis to the eastern church complex , and (s to n) the River Yordanos, named after the one in Jerusalem. The rectangles representing the churches is a common icon in Ethiopian art, and is represented in various places throughout the restaurant. Gebeta is said to be the original mancala-style board game. Evidence of gebeta boards have been found in artifacts from Classical-era Axum (more on the Axumite Empire later). #historylesson#ethiopia#lalibela#churches#history#wondersoftheworld#unesco#worldheritage#habesha#ethiopianhistory#abyssinia#axum#jebena#coffee

  • Gebre Mesqel Lalibela was a ruler of Ethiopia in the 1200s, part of the long-standing Zagwe Dynasty. He spent much of his childhood in Crusader-occupied Jerusalem, and when it was reconquered by the Muslims in 1187, he drew inspiration to build a replica of the city in the highlands of Ethiopia, and use it as his capital and the spiritual center of the country. In a feat of engineering unfathomable for its time, he oversaw the cutting of eleven large churches out of the soft limestone boulders of the area – all of them intricately and meticulously carved into perfect angles and proportions. The Lalibela complex likely took decades to finish, but became a powerful center of the Zagwe domain and a site of wonder for later European visitors, with one Portuguese ambassador in the 1500s writing: “I weary of writing more about these buildings, because it seems to me that I shall not be believed if I write more … I swear by God, in Whose power I am, that all I have written is the truth.” Two of the twelve churches stand out in particular. Medhane Alem, at over 100 feet in length and 33 feet in height, is considered to be the largest monolithic church in the world. The most recognizable and well-preserved is St Giorgis, which is carved out as a cross and sits alone at the far end of the complex. Today they are a popular tourist destination, and the second holiest site in the country behind the ancient city of Aksum. #historylesson#ethiopia#lalibela#churches#history#wondersoftheworld#unesco#worldheritage#habesha#ethiopianhistory#abyssinia#axum

  • The common base for many Ethiopian dishes, including Misir Wot and Yeter kik Alicha – is Onion, Garlic, and Ginger. You will find these flavors in most Ethiopian dishes and it is why they go well together in a shared plate. Koseret (Lippia Javanica) is a herb unique to Ethiopia. It is commonly used for spiced butter and as a condiment, and is also prevalent in our Gomen recipe. #spices#ethiopia#ethiopianfood#vegan#vegetarian#spicerack#instafood

  • Our revolution is an internal revolution to make Yourself... a better person. Amir Vahab's revolution is though his music -- traditional music through his mastery of the Tambour, an ancient Persian lute. Vahab's began through a different sort of revolution, the Iranian Revolution of 1979. A resident of New York since the early 80s, Vahab has been sharing his love and affiliation for tradition of a Persian/Turkish-influenced music, but exhibited a music esoteric beyond nationality and meant to elevate to a higher level of humanity and spirituality. He has taught this aesthetic approach to music for decades and grows himself through its influence. We are happy to host Amir Alan Vahab, Wednesday 12/28 at 8pm. Under the Grass Roof. Please join us. Free w/ purchase. Everything is eshi. #livemusic #tambour #iran #mysticism #bushwick #worldmusic

  • Rule of thumb: a WOT is spicy and likely contains #Berbere an ALICHA is not and likely contains #Turmeric. Yin = Berbere Yang = Turmeric Berbere is great and delicious (see below post for more on berbere) Turmeric is anti-inflammatory, supports digestion, builds immune system. Just one of the most perfect foods out there. On our menu: Yin = Misir Wot Yang = Yeter kik Alicha Getit. Everything is Eshi. #spices #ethiopia #ethiopianfood #vegan #vegetarian #spicerack

  • #BERBERE: If you encounter an Ethiopian dish that is red or reddish, chances are it has liberal amounts of Berbere in it. This spice blend is based on Ethiopian Capsicum Red Pepper, a medium hot pepper that packs a punch but does not overwhelm the flavor of a dish. Along with that, Berbere contains a variety of spices, most consistently cardamom and salt, but also fenugreek, ajwain, cloves, coriander, rue, cumin, nigella, and many more. No two Berbere are alike, and they can have dozens of ingredients or just a few. Documented use of Berbere as a mix goes as far back as the reign of the Zagwe kings in the 13th century, but almost certainly it was used well before this period. There are many recipes online for Berbere, and some stores sell the mix on their shelves. Beware of premade mixes that contain paprika though, they will not nearly have the same kick and balance as Berbere from the source. Our Berbere comes homemade from Addis Ababa. Will be selling it to you soon. More about Ethiopian spices coming in the frame above. Stay tuned, follow us. #spices #ethiopia #ethiopianfood #vegan #spicerack
