Red Sea Cafe serves authentic Ethiopian/Eritrean cuisine. Never tried it before? Well, it is a definate must. This was by no means my first visit here, and will not be my last.
One of the curious features of Ethiopian cuisine is how the food is served to you. Apparently, back home, the food is meant to be eaten and shared together. And that is how it is served to you here. The different vegetarian and non-veg cuisines are spread out of a large piece of 'injera' (a flat, pancake like bread), and everyone at the table dives in and pigs out. Most would agree that the non-veg dishes are probably a bit better than the veggies, although I do like the spicy lentils quite a bit.
Of the Ethiopian restuarants in Vancouver that we have tried, this is probably the best. They are open late, and the owners are very friendly. The price of Ethiopian food is not bad... approximately $15, and you will leave with a full stomach.
