Who serves the most delicious gumbo in New Orleans? The top burrito in San Francisco? Welcome to Taste of the Town, where we call on a local expert to share the best versions of one of their city's most iconic foods.
Das Ethiopian Restaurant
Diners at this white-tablecloth Georgetown mainstay have, over the years, included the likes of Stevie Wonder, Deepak Chopra, and Jessica Alba. The draw here, though, goes far beyond people-watching. Doro wat is customarily served over injera, but here the stew, prepared with juicy thighs and tender drumsticks, is served on a plate with injera on the side. Diners eat to the soothing soundtrack of classic jazz from the collection of owner Sileshi Alifom, who refers to the restaurant as “my house.”
