ETHIOPIAN FOOD · FOOTSCRAY HOSPITALITY

# Our story starts *at the table.*

A shared platter. A little curiosity. A conversation that carries on long after the first bite. Welcome to Taste of Ethiopia.

A MEAL TO EXPERIENCE TOGETHER

## Different flavours. One shared plate.

At 121 Nicholson Street in Footscray, Ethiopian food is an invitation to slow down and share. Soft injera brings rich stews, vegetables and seasoned meats together in a way that makes every mouthful a little different.

New to the food? You don’t need to know every dish. Start with the flavours you enjoy, read our simple menu guides, and ask the team to help you find your way.

## The conversation doesn’t end *with the meal.*
