This is why My coworkers beg me on lunch break

You should try moroccan and west african before you make your choice

Thought I made it clear in my post that I tried different African restaurants? They still took the L for not making anything different than what we make.

But hey, if you prefer unimpressive sometimes bland food that you can already find better versions of in our own cuisine then suite yourself

Somali food wins Africa

Somali food all day every day on every other food.

Ethiopian food is better.

It's good. It's up there with Chinese food, Lebanese food and Japanese food.
