It’s def a good cuisine for vegetarians. We always get some vegetarian options when we go and that is my favorite even over the meat dishes!
girl you make me smile all the time.
your haphaphappiness and CHOICE TO BE UPBEAT is contagious.

HI Mary. I just LOVE this post. Have a wonderful weekend! (oooh, markets!!)
Ethiopian food?!? You should totallllllyyy post some recipes =D I have no idea what even constitutes Ethiopian food!
Ethiopian food? What noms would you suggest – I’m afraid I’m not at all familiar with Ethiopian cuisine. :(
I will have to admit that I’m not familiar with the names of anything! My favorite dishes were a lamb one and a vegetarian sampler option. Your best bet is to ask the waiter or whoever is at the restaurant you visit. They know best and will happily lead you in the right direction!
