We went to Abyssinian and shared the vegetarian banquet. You can't really tell from the picture below but this is huge and took up most of our table for two. We couldn't finish it. Unlike previous Ethiopian restaurants we have been to the dishes weren't overly spicy and I was reminded about how much I really love to eat with my hands. This restaurant can be summoned up in one word in terms of the service, decor, taste etc as:
PERFECT!
Afterwards we went to a lake in Moonee Ponds for a little walk only to discover that half of the lake is missing as they are doing work on it. It didn't stop us discovering and appreciating these cute creatures though:
We also went to the drive-in where I snuck in a small tub of Mr T's favourite gelato flavour: bounty from Fritz gelato.The Abyssinian
