When we heard rumors that an Ethiopian restaurant was coming to little ole’ Pittsburgh, my friends and I were overjoyed. While waiting for months for the restaurant to open, we wound up promising everyone we knew that we’d go to Abay with them once it opened. When I say everyone, I mean everyone.

When Abay finally DID open, we had three months of dinner-dates booked on our calander, as it seemed everyone remembered our promise. Three months of any cuisine might make a person sick of it, especially if it isn’t fantastic. But, fortunately for us (and the rest of Pittsburgh), Abay delivers in bringing exotic AND delicious Ethiopian fare at reasonable prices, and we didn’t get bored once! (more…)
