About this spot
Lalibela serves slow-roasted doro wat that is so tender the meat practically falls off the bone, accompanied by injera bread with a sourdough-like tang. The restaurant's intimate Oud-West setting feels like stepping into Addis Ababa without leaving Europe.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the spicy berbere spice level high if you want to feel the heat of Ethiopia.
- Use your right hand to tear off pieces of injera and scoop up stews for the authentic eating experience.
- Save room for shiro wat, a smooth chickpea stew that acts as a perfect palate cleanser between courses.
