It does not take too long to get used to communal, fork-free eating at this bare-bones Lakeview Ethiopian restaurant. Pretty soon, you will be tearing off delicious, spongy morsels of the staple bread (inerja), and scooping up the various spicy, seasoned entrees that accompany it at Mama Desta's Red Sea Restaurant. Meat-lovers and vegetarians alike will find more than enough tasty dishes to sample. Treat yourself to the red sea cream pudding for dessert if you have room.average cost: USD 20
