HABESHA ETHIOPIAN RESTAURANT

Story

Most Ethiopian food is served alongside Injera, the staple food of the country. Injera is a flat, soft and spongy bread, like a sour dough crepe. Generally it has a tangy almost sour taste but the flavour is not overpowering at all. Usually, a few different Wots will be served with Injera.
The Wot is the traditional dish of Ethiopia and is a mixture of vegetables, meats, spices and sauces. Usually, Wots are spicy, but there is an extraordinary variety including non-spicy options. Wots are served on top of Injera - the bread will be rolled out into a sheet onto the plate with the Wots placed directly on it; the Injera acts simultaneously as a plate and a utensil.
The primary ingredient that characterises every Wot is Berbere, an Ethiopian red spice blend made from a mix of herbs and spices.
Most traditional Ethiopian food is eaten with the hands; this is done by tearing off a piece of Injera, using it to grab some food, and putting it directly in your mouth. For those new to this, it can feel awkward at first, but most people end up having fun with it.
Generally, the meal is finished when not only all the stews and are eaten, but when the tablecloth (the Injera) has been eaten too.

Everyone from this restaurant is amazing human being. Their sincere effort to provide a unique experience was gracefully nice. We ordered Mixed Salad, Cheese platter and Braised beef. The foods were just perfect. Definitely recommend them, and I will be there again for sure.
Absolutely amazing food! Lots of different options so I recommend going with a group and splitting a few mains. It's pretty filling.
Was recommended this place by a friend so visited for a dinner. I absolutely enjoyed my meal.
Sooo good!!!! Best Ethiopian we have ever had and we’ve lived with Ethiopian immigrants and eaten at Ethiopian restaurants around the world. As vegetarians, we also really appreciated that there were many many veg choices. We will stop here whenever we come to Newcastle from Sydney.
Food was quite tasty, but a bit expensive. Drinks weren’t great. Service was unfortunately very slow.
Love this place! Reasonable price, good quality and service. Thought that was bit expensive but the size of the chicken skewers were so generous. Ordered 2 mains and the Lamb one was so tender and tasty. Good experience!
