Asmara Restaurant is one of the best eateries in Cambridge. East African, Eritrean and Ethiopian Cuisine. Here's a Taste of what to expect when you go to this exotic restaurant...
The sauce 'wot' is the traditional dish, made of chicken or meat or peas and lentils with a spicy red pepper sauce. It is eaten with the national flat pancake bread called "Injera" which is made from t'eff flour. The meal is normally served on a mosob - a large plate on a colorful woven basket table - with a variety of 'wots' arranged around the "Injera." Any of the Eritrean & Ethiopian 'wots' may be prepared as keyi 'wot', which has a Berbere paste in it or as Alit'cha which does not. Eating with your family or group of friends at Asmara restaurant you'll experience the excitement of eating delicious food the Eritrean and Ethiopian way!

The menu features Vegetarian Combos and Meat Lover's Combos Alike..the Tomatoe Salad is to die for, yummy!! It's a great experience if you've never gone to an Ethopian Restaurant before. Traditionally there is no silverware, you eat the food with your hands and bread, the waitstaff provides you with a warm towel to wipe your hands before eating...
This is a place to bring either family and or friends to enjoy alittle something different, but remember if you are in a Hurry this isn't the place to come for that, you need to be able to Chill and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere!!
