Zed's Ethiopian Cuisine *
Washington, ¢

In a city with a wealth of Ethiopian restaurants, Zed's sets the standard for cuisine. In this plain setting, the spicy stews called wats are richer, the alechas that are their mild counterparts are more complex in flavor, and the crepe-like injera lighter than those elsewhere.

Zed's also offers a few specialties that set its menu apart: broiled short ribs with a rosemary crust, cubes of beef with collard greens, and beef stewed in a spicy puree of yellow split peas.
