Axum Restaurant

Flavor and texture are integral to more than just the entrees at Axum Restaurant. Entire tables' orders emerge on communal serving platters, blending the aromas of collard greens with those of housemade cottage cheese, sautéed beef with rosemary and herb butter, and lamb shanks in fiery berbere sauce. Diners sop up the spicy, savory fare using scraps of injera, a spongy flatbread, in place of silverware or food-filled Super Soakers.

The cuisine is offset by the dining room’s relatively austere ambiance, where fuchsia tablecloths add a vibrant pop of color to the space's soothing neutral tones. Pendant lamps hang directly above the bar area, illuminating the bartenders as they pour Ethiopian beers and uncork bottles of honey wine, which is made in-house by drilling into the subterranean honey reservoirs.

The Groupon Guide to: Your Dream Body

If you find yourself with hours and hours of free time every day, spend it productively—by thinking about or drawing your dream body. Here are some things that belong on the perfect you:

  • Long, flowing hair
  • Long, flowing foot hair, so you can donate regularly to a wig shop without cutting your head hair
  • Two noses: one for smelling and one for eating small foods
  • Edible, beef-flavored tongue
  • Legs and arms switched
  • Fingers that somehow aren't as disgusting as normal human fingers. Maybe they don't have knuckles, or each finger has a diamond-shaped tip. Anything to make them less disgusting.
  • Entirely sword-resistant

If your nose had teeth, would you stop using your mouth to eat?

Reviews

  • We started with some deliciously, surprisingly big sambusas filled to the brim with lentils and served with a sweet and spicy awaze sauce

  • The beef tibs are my favorite thing to eat here. Tibs are the first thing I tried of Ethopian cuisine and these are up there with the best I've had.
