Ethiopia's original Gurage kitfo specialist: a family-run house that has served essentially one dish for over three decades. The butter-soft, spice-laden minced beef — raw or leb leb — with ayib and gomen is widely considered the benchmark kitfo in Addis.
☀️ Local tip
There's no real menu — just say how you want your kitfo cooked; pairs perfectly with a cold local beer.
