aka the Ethiopian restaurant
I went here a few weeks ago with the ladies from yoga, and promised to take Lon one day. He was rather apprehensive, since we tried Ethiopian food in the Hague years ago, and the dishes were so highly spiced as to be almost inedible, and the injera resembled a wet dishcloth and was incredibly sour.
Chez Haregua isn't like that, and the food was mildly spiced, delicious - and to my untrained palate many of the dishes wouldn't have been out of place on an Indian thali plate (in India rather than a restaurant), and the injera though a little sour was very edible. We went for the assortiment plate, with lentil, vegetable, and meat dishes - all except one were really yummy (one tasted like mustard). In order to find out which ones were our favourites to order in the future we got a run down from the waiter, and I was a bit perturbed to find out the one we had identified as meat - not sure what but its OK was tripe.
this is the aftermath...we got too excited and forgot to take a before pic...Info on Ethiopian cuisine can be found here and here
