The menu includes doro watt, a spicy dish with chicken legs, ginger, and hard-boiled egg ($13.50); yebeg tibs, or lamb cubes flavored with garlic, rosemary, green pepper, and onions ($15.75); and numerous vegan dishes, such as kik alicha, a mild blend of split peas, onion, garlic, and ginger ($10.25). In true Ethiopian fashion, all dishes are designed to be shared and scooped up with pieces of sour pancake. Enjoy the all-you-can eat buffet ($13.95) on Sunday with varied dishes that rotate weekly.

Ethiopian Diamond Restaurant

Ethiopian Diamond Restaurant owner and head chef Almaz Yigizaw, whose name means "diamond," re-creates her grandmother's recipes with ingredients she imports herself. Hailing from Gondar, Ethiopia, Yigizaw crafts award-winning cuisine lauded by Zagat, the Chicago Tribune, and the Chicago Sun-Times. Though silverware and food-flinging trebuchets are available upon request, visitors typically deliver morsels of food to their mouths with swatches of injera, a spongy flat bread with a mild, slightly sour flavor. Meats such as beef and lamb characterize Ethiopian stews, while lentils and peas take center stage in vegetarian dishes, which are free of honey, animal oils, or self-aware zucchini. On busier days, cooks perform a multistep coffee-making ritual, ultimately pouring out freshly brewed joe alongside burning incense. Ethiopian Diamond Restaurant has locations in Edgewater and Rogers Park.

The Groupon Guide to: Getting the Couch through the Doorway

They would never make a couch so big that it couldn't fit through any size of doorway. If you ever wanna sit down to watch TV, you're gonna have to do the following first:

  • Turn it right.
  • No, that was a question. "Turn it, right?"
  • Try to shove your head through it. For leverage.
  • Take the cushions off.
  • See if that lady will hold the cushions so they don't get dirty.
  • What are those purple and black stains under the cushions?
  • Tell her it will only take a second and that we would do it for her.
  • Those stains look like a scary code.
  • Line it up so that the armrest is parallel with the huge gash we just put in the wall.
  • Take the cushions back from Mrs. Princess. She obviously has better things to do.
  • Hold on, I think my fingers fell asleep.
  • Yup.
  • Think outside the box. What if we moved the doorway around the couch?
  • I can't believe we got this for free from the back of that open moving truck.
  • Throw the cushions down the stairs so the lady knows we're mad at her.
  • Let's take a break and drink these milks my friend hooked us up with.

Can you really get a couch through a doorway in 15 simple steps?
