## Buna means coffee

Coffee has a place at the Ethiopian table beyond a quick drink between plans. Buna is the Amharic word for coffee, and the jebena is the distinctive pot associated with preparing and serving it. A coffee break can become a chance to sit, talk and share a little more time.

## A small cup, a slower moment

Jebena buna is listed on the Taste of Ethiopia menu with popcorn. It is a fitting way to pause after a meal and continue the conversation. Ask the team about the serving and availability when you visit.

## Let the meal unfold

If you are planning to stay for coffee, leave room in your plans as well as on the table. A shared meal is not only about trying several dishes; it is also about the company around them.
