I love my America like this. I do. So much diversity in a row for a mini shopping plaza. So much to explored for my husband and I who recently brought a house here.
If you crave Ethiopian food as much as I do and love to explore cuisines as a whole...this place is what you call "the motherload."
Prices are more than friendly. They sell fresh injera daily. Both teff (darker color) & regular...get teff - it's sight more expensive but it's the real authentic deal. Don't get me started on the health benefits of injera made from real teff. This is not the restaurant stuff. The restaurant stuff has filler so it's closer to bread. Teff has much less calories, more fiber, gluten free, and what I believe will eventually be the next quinoa or chickpea superfood fad. And no, I'm not a hipster. Chickpeas & quinoa taste like sand to me. Teff is sour soft goodness!
They have fair priced spices from fennel to cardamom to tumeric to koset to mimitas...hopefully I spelled everything right lol. There's a lot more I can't even translate. They only set you back $5 per pack. They also have some Ethiopian coffee stuff.
It's a store with juice, ice cream, scratchers etc as well.
The shop keepers are so amazingly friendly. I've been to Amy's Merkato in Central District before to buy injera. It was a OK experience. The older man was distant compare to the owners at Harambe. They were both so friendly!!! I'll be a sure customer for years to come.
They do take credit card but I believe it's for purchases over $10. read more
