"The Eru was absolutely good and the most the way the Gari foufou is made wad excellent not hard like stone as you would find in certain place in West Africa. Bravo to that magic cook who did this successfully
.
I would have liked the Eru with fish and shrimp.
I liked the chicken but to have the Eru with mixed chicken, smoked fish and shrimp with crab added will give the Eru a very good perfume as we have in Togo and Benin .
I have really enjoyed my food one order served two meals. Good value for money and it's healthy.
Can you have the Eru done with peanut oil instead ok palm.
Thank you for this comfort food so well anticipated today.
Best regards"

The second time I ordered I didn't get any plantains, the chicken in the Signature Chicken Meal was smaller and hard. The Sausage Rolls was hard as a rock. I couldn't even dig my nails into it"

I also enjoy that I can select my favorite brand or light/dark Teff injera here!
As a wheat-allergic diner, Dama is an amazing place to enjoy Ethiopian cuisine without worrying that someone will make a mistake and I will have a horrible reaction. The staff is very careful about using only Gluten-Free injera in our orders, so we have loved this spot for all the years since we first discovered it. The staff are all warm, friendly, and conscientious people as well."
