A Good Ethiopian Meal

Last night Wade and I took a trip off base for a good meal. We ended up at a place called Bembis,We have been to the place before and the food is French and Ethiopian. We opted for the Ethiopian. They have this spore bread and spicy meats with these awesome green peppers. I am all about spicy. They also marinate some beef in this red sauce, to die for. You eat with your hands, so it can be a little messy. If I could liken it to another type of food I would say It reminds me of the Marrakesh in NW Portland, Oregon a Moroccan Restaurant. We shared an open plate which was good. It was the right amount of food. After dinner the waitress brought out a desert book and i was hesitant to even look but, then I saw they have pistachio ice cream, I had to get it. It was heavenly !!! I think it ranks up with the best pistachio ice cream I have ever had. We also enjoyed a Ethiopian Coffee, which was a Strong roasted coffee and Ethiopians take pride in their coffee. It was a good experience. I have been working a lot and you could say I am stressed out more than usual lately. This experience massaged my soul and I feel lighter. This is definitely a place to go if you are in Djibouti. Affordable, great atmosphere, and not to mention the food.

Cheers to all.
