We did ask about one dish, gored gored I think, which was either raw or very rare. The owner said she only had it two days per week that were the "good" days for meat at Footscray Market. I can't remember what days they were though! It did make me think that they are sticklers for quality.Lauren aka Ms Bakloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540872180823771651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-49891033348316708212012-02-07T11:20:50.699+11:002012-02-07T11:20:50.699+11:00I love Addis Abeba - it's just a little bit mo...I love Addis Abeba - it's just a little bit more more-ish than other Ethiopian around town. The kitfo (sp?) I shared last time with my sister and my cousin was gorgeous.

I don't need another hairdresser...just a place to get a coffee before 9am :) I'll definitely make sure we go to the right Addis.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-24430093020647203882012-01-30T14:02:08.587+11:002012-01-30T14:02:08.587+11:00I am praying, praying that it is a cafe!!!

It looks sooo promising, although I wouldn't put it past Footscray for it to be a bloody hairdresser who just happens to want retro scales and a toaster oven. Yes do try Addis Abeba but be careful, the next door shop is called Addis Cafe so it can get confusing. African Taste rocks, they are such divine people and the berbere gnocchi is one of my top five dishes of all time. When I had a dental procedure recently, it was one of the first things I ate - so comforting.Lauren aka Ms Bakloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540872180823771651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-89166184105201749902012-01-30T13:54:39.718+11:002012-01-30T13:54:39.718+11:00I'm definitely keen to try Addis...much closer...I'm definitely keen to try Addis...much closer to me than travelling to Flemington for African. Also want to check out African Taste, which I've seen you've given quite a wrap up! <br /><br />On a tangential matter...any chance you've heard anything about what's opening up at 48 Essex St West Footscray? I went past there this morning and had a sticky beak in the window...looks like the beginnings of a cafe...all recycled wood and metal stools, rather hip...could it be true??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-20499642627263160982012-01-27T15:50:23.143+11:002012-01-27T15:50:23.143+11:00Haha don't know how 'celebrity' the lo...Haha don't know how 'celebrity' the local rag is but it was still fun.
