Menu offerings will include traditional East African dishes like crispy sambusa, tibs, miser (lentil stew), tikel gomen (cabbage and carrots), shiro (chickpea stew), and ater (split pea stew) — all served with spongy injera. Enat Ethiopian is located between Boxcar Betty’s and Ava Pizzeria in Optimist Hall. The stall opens from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday through Saturday.
