Hmm, Caribbean in Ethiopia. That was an odd just thinking about it, but Africa never ceases to amaze me and Shifta restaurant is one of those rare gems, our should I say pirates treasure. What started off as a beer run ended with a evening of memories. Flashback - the Curry masala chicken took me back to my hometown, Durban - South Africa style of cooking. A little mild for my taste bufs, but the food was still full of flavor and I enjoyed every bit of it. The restaurant is tucked away and can be easily missed but quite easy to find. The decor is bright and vibrant and carries the reggae theme throughout out. After being in Ethiopia for a while I come to realise that all Ethiopian music has the same sound to it so it was good to hear some reggae beats. Sorry guys. The place is funky and fun and was quiet for a Tuesday night, but we were there for the food and habasha(local brand beer). The staff are quiet friendly and I went on their recommendation to try my meal. Good choice guys. A fantastic experience but I would love to go back when life returns to normal. If you in Ethiopia and want some Caribbean flavours, Shifta is the place to be.
