All 5 tipsShow fewer
  • Ask staff about veganizing dishes like sambusa by skipping non-vegan sauces such as mayo-based dips.
  • Inform the staff if gluten intolerant, as they can accommodate by serving vegan plates without injera.
  • Prepare for a simple and unadorned dining atmosphere focused on food quality rather than decor.
