Cheap Eats 2008

Besides the rain, there's not too much that Portland and Addis Ababa share in common—but we've still got a surprising amount of good, spongy injera within city limits. Blue Nile has some of Portland's best tibs (stir-fried beef, $10), doro tibs (sautéed chicken, $10) or the vegetarian atikilt alitcha (sautéed green beans, cabbage, potatoes and carrots, $7.50). Share, eat with your hands, and say, "amasay-ga-nala" on your way out: It's a surefire way to get a smile out of whoever's working the front register. (LK)
