Ge'ez Ethiopian Restaurant

May 6, 2021

   

We both really enjoy injera-based meals, but they pop up in our lives more as an occasional treat than as a regular meal. Maybe that'll change now that Ge'ez Ethiopean restaurant is established in Brunswick. Here's their version of the veg*n-platter-for-two we tend to rely on ($24 per person). It offers solid coverage across their veg*n options, including house salad, whole lentil stew, ye'misir kike wot (split lentils), ye'duba wot (pumpkin stew), kik alicha wot (yellow split peas), shiro wot (thick chickpea flour stew), and key sir alicha (beetroot and red potatoes).

   

Beyond our usual trusty order, we also requested the samosas ($7). They're super-crispy and densely stuffed with lentils.

   

The staff were especially hospitable, fetching us extra samosa dipping sauce and injera rolls without us even requesting them. With most vegetarian dishes being vegan, and gluten-free options available with advance notice, it'll be fun to share a meal here with friends as well as sneaking in, just the two of us, when we can't be bothered to cook.

Accessibility: Tables and benches are arranged at medium density, with a reasonably clear and flat corridor through the middle (see photo above). Toilets were unisex, with decent space and handrails intended for accessibility. We ordered at the table and paid at a low counter.
