Ethio Kana
A mother-daughter operation that runs only weekends from the back of Lebanon Express, which sounds like a setup for disappointment until you taste the injera and realize every dish is made to order in real time. You don't just eat here—you're transported, which is exactly what authentic hospitality tastes like. The catch is logistical: it's hidden, it's weekend-only, and it fills up fast.
Pro tip: Go Saturday afternoon and participate in the coffee ceremony—this is the experience the place is built around, not an add-on.
