A feast for the senses—experiences the rich food culture of Ethiopia
If you’re a true food lover, Ethiopia belongs at the top of your culinary travel list. Ethiopian cuisine is renowned not only for its bold flavors and unique variety, but also for the vibrant food culture that surrounds every meal. From rich stews to spicy sautés, Ethiopian dishes offer a delightful mix of vegetables and meats, often infused with aromatic spices and served with Injera, a spongy, sourdough flatbread made from the ancient grain Teff.
But food in Ethiopia is more than just nourishment—it's a social experience. Sharing meals from a communal plate called a mesob is a cherished tradition that brings people closer. And then there’s Gursha—the heartfelt act of feeding a loved one a mouthful of delicious food by hand, a gesture that embodies warmth, care, and connection.
Come for the flavor, stay for the tradition. Ethiopian cuisine is an unforgettable journey for your taste buds and your soul.
Experience Ethiopian tradition with our authentic coffee ceremony
At Radisson Blu Hotel, Addis Ababa, we invite our long-stay guests to experience a cherished Ethiopian tradition: a coffee ceremony that goes far beyond a simple cup. It’s a ritual filled with warmth, purpose, and cultural pride.
From roasting the beans to serving the brew, every step is performed with intention and grace. The ceremony unfolds in three rounds:
- Abol—the first and strongest brew
- Tona—a smoother, more mellow second round
- Bereka—the final, lighter cup, symbolizing blessing and goodwill
Each round is accompanied by traditional snacks such as popcorn or roasted barley, creating a welcoming atmosphere for conversation, laughter, and community.
Join us in celebrating the soul of Ethiopia, where coffee is not just a beverage, but a cultural celebration of connection and hospitality.
