This Mobil is now a Texaco and I've never gone here for gas or anything you'd normally stop at a station for.
So why this review? Because this Texaco-not-a-Mobil Gas Station is a hidden source of ETHIOPIAN FOOD! I am not kidding. Walk into the store, past the chips which face the outside windows and turn on aisle 2. That's where you'll find shelf upon shelf of fresh injera. You'll find plastic containers of various spices, flaxseed and the like. Head back to the register and turn towards the drink machine. There you'll find a little mini-fridge full of other goodies, including barbere seasoning (a wonderful savory use-too-much-and-your-world-will-light-up spice mix).
Tons of the labels are in Amharic, so unless you know how to read Amharic or have cooked Ethiopian food before and know what you're looking for, feel free to ask the staff. They will be DELIGHTED you're interested in their foodstuffs. read more
