Meskerem is the kind of Ethiopian store where you can smell the aroma of spices as soon as you enter. The signature Injera is sour and soft. It is served with spicy beef stew or a vegetable platter. It is the best taste when you tear it with your hands. It is suitable for bringing a few friends there on weekends and chatting while eating. The atmosphere is particularly relaxed. If you want to change your taste and have a meal of pilaf rice, this is the right place.
