More infoMesob occupies a small Burnaby room in the Edmonds area and has quietly convinced a devoted, 4.6-rating following it may serve the best Ethiopian and Eritrean food in British Columbia. Dinner is one shared round of injera: richly spiced stews, tender meats, a parade of vegetarian dishes, both of you leaning over the same plate. Order the combination platter and trust the regulars who guard this place.
Order the combination platter, it comes as one shared round of tangy injera under richly spiced stews, tender meats and veg, all meant to be eaten by hand, so skip the forks and scoop with the bread. First-timers miss that the injera itself is the cutlery and the best part; tear, scoop, and feed each other a bite. It's a small, low-key room open till 11 every night, so there's no rush, budget about an hour and a half and ask about the traditional coffee to close.
