Spice level warning — Injera is not what I expected

I underestimated Injera. The richly buttery description didn't prepare me for the reality. teff injera brings a heat or pungency that builds steadily rather than hitting upfront. By halfway through I was sweating but couldn't stop eating.

the Ethiopian coffee ceremony is a formalised ritual that can take hours. The a traditional coffee ceremony setting setting means locals eat this with ease while visitors like me reach for water. Ethiopian coffee ceremony cut through it better than water would have. Don't order the mild version out of caution — the full version is the point. I'd go back. Three stars only because I wasn't warned.
