Cheap Eats 2006

Alem Gebrehiwot's eatery is hands down the king (and queen) of Ethiopian restaurants. From the poetic and complexly spiced alicha tibssi kintti-shara, a miracle stew of beef and mushrooms ($11.95) to the rich vegetarian sampler plate ($9 per person)�a kaleidoscopic array of chickpeas, lentils, unslimy okra (really) and so on�very little will do you wrong. The incredible smells, spices, grain-rich plates, earthy lamb, even the spongy enjera�this is communal eating at its best. (TD)
