Amsale in West Philly presents traditional Ethiopian dishes with nuance, depth and a homespun touch.
An Ethiopian kitfo of raw minced beef seasoned with spices and aromatic butter is served atop injera bread at Amsale Cafe in West Philadelphia.Chef Gomege Achamyeleh isn’t telling me the secret seasonings that make her kitfo so good at Amsale Café. In fact, it is the clarified butter infused with fragrant spices called niter kibbeh that she’s really not sharing details about.
“I was always cooking at home, and I just love to cook. So it’s the same thing here, but I’m just cooking for everybody,” says Achamyeleh. That homespun touch is evident in Achamyeleh’s food at Amsale, which presents traditional dishes with more nuance, depth and touch than several other local Ethiopian kitchens I’ve eaten at recently. The distinction can be subtle in the array of slow-stewed meats and vegetables.
