Dukem - review
I agree. Dukem was great. My only other experience with an Ethiopian restaurant was in New York City (think it was called Ghenet) and I throughly enjoyed it. I finally got a chance to try Dukem in Toronto and found the food at Dukem to be much better. The injera (pancake/bread) was a light texture and tasted great. Three of us shared the vegetable assortment (collard greens, lentils, roasted beets, cabbage, salad, etc.) and beef tibs (like a stew) in both a spicy and mild version. All of the food was served on a large round injera pancake. The staff was very accommodating in adjusting the "heat" of the dishes to our group's range of tastes. We ended our meal with the coffee ceremony. Fantastic - and not to be missed! The smells of the freshly roasted coffee beans, the popcorn (yes, popcorn is served with the coffee!) and the incense, it's worth going to Dukem if only to enjoy the wonderful aromas! highly recommended.
