Gasp.
We headed to Asmara (739 Massachusetts Ave.), and ordered two of these:
From center clockwise:
Beef, lamb, shrimp, chicken, carrots, lentils, and spinach. I would love to elaborate, but I can't, as I the menu online is not an extensive list, and I can't find the dishes that were served to us. Also, "beef, lamb, shrimp, etc." is how the meal was described to us during dinner, so it should suffice.
We ate all this with injera, a yeast-risen flat bread with a spongy texture. Injera is also gluten-free, so celiac gastros should head over to Asmara in the near future :)
After dinner, we headed across the street for some baklava, which was absolutely delicious. Honey, nuts, and butter are a few of my favorite things in the world, and baklava had them all.
I didn't look at the name of the restaurant that sold it, but they had Greek food to go and had hookahs lined up by the window, with a sign reading "shisha for rent". That's like saying "water for rent" or "food for rent", but to each his own.
I digress.
Anyways, BIG thank you to everyone that came out: Molly, Laura, Lauren, Sarah, Stephanie, Margaret, Kristi and Margo.
I'll be sending out an email soon with a poll of where to go next; I want to switch up continents every month, so Africa will be tabled until after October, but feel free to roam around Asia, the Americas, Oceania, and Europe (or the Caribbean islands!) and let me know where/what you want to eat next!
Keep eating,
Steph
