Saba Restaurant
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
The read// why locals go
Saba Restaurant cooks Ethiopian home food in Piazza, the Italian-built old quarter of Addis Ababa, as a midday proposition. Home cooking is the operative phrase — this is the register of Ethiopian food that doesn't get exported, the everyday plates and the fasting-day vegetable spreads that follow the Orthodox calendar rather than a menu strategy. Around ETB 80 covers a meal. Piazza itself is worth the trip: laid out under the Italian occupation, still the densest and most walkable part of the old city, and a very different Addis from the glass towers going up on Bole Road.
