Yet another BEST LIST! This time bringing you the best of African cuisine and food across Melbourne! Featuring the best Ethiopian restaurants in Melbourne, Victoria. Ethiopian food is one of my all-time favorite cuisines due to the striking similarity it has to one of my other favorite cuisine – Indian food. But on the other hand, it has enough uniqueness about the wonderful cuisine to surprise me with each new dish I try.
The cuisine is often dominated by fresh veggies and spicy meat dishes with a lot of flavors and a unique saltiness to them. The most popular elements are a traditional sourdough flatbread (injera) topped with a thick stew (wot) and many other flavourful delicacies.
