Blue Nile Cafe is a gem! 🌟 Nestled in the City Market, this Black and women-owned Ethiopian restaurant serves up authentic flavors with a warm, inviting atmosphere.

I highly recommend starting with the sampler platter - it's the perfect way to dive into different dishes. The meat combo was delightful, and I savored every bite of the delicious veggies.

The staff, especially Richard, was incredibly friendly and attentive, making our experience even better. Plus, the outdoor seating is lovely! Just a heads-up: extra injera does come with a small charge.

Can't wait to return! 🍽️
