The Thoughtful Splurge — worth every penny

Cambridge institution since 1986 serving Eritrean-Ethiopian cuisine. The vegetarian combo is a revelation - lentils, collard greens, split peas all scooped with spongy injera. They make two types of injera (rice flour and teff). The weekday lunch buffet is an incredible deal.
