I migliori ristoranti di cucina africananella città Padova della Padova

28/11/2025: One of the best restaurants in Padua. We've been going there for years and have introduced it to many friends. The atmosphere is warm and homey, and the owners' kindness is unparalleled. The food is addictive, not to mention the tea afterward, which rounds out the meal and makes the experience complete.

16/11/2025: I was really curious to taste this country's cuisine, imagining it to be rich in exotic aromas and spices, but in the end, I didn't find the flavors of the dishes I ordered to be as original as I expected. I should emphasize that I can't say the dishes were bad, but simply, in my opinion, lacked personality. From the rich offerings, well explained by the owner, we chose the unique friendship platter, or Maadi (five Eritrean bread bases that we garnished with two meat bases—ostrich and beef—and three vegetable bases—lentils, chickpeas, and eggplant). This dish is so called because it encourages diners to share, with their hands, but eating isn't "mandatory." It's beautiful to look at, but, as I mentioned above, its flavors are less interesting. In my opinion, only the red lentils were a cut above. The bread served (inghiera) was certainly original, unique in its flavor (even though it was quite flat) and texture (soft, spongy). The owner mentions piadina romagnola in his introduction, but it's only piadina-like in shape. To finish, they served us a pleasant herbal tea accompanied by cinnamon biscuits (IKEA-style). A brief mention of the unpleasant, unexpected, musty/musty smell that permeates the room upon entering; I'd say it's easily remedied with a good air freshener. For the Maadi, a 750cl beer, and the herbal tea, we paid €50. My conclusion is that I'd like to hear the opinion of an Eritrean to understand whether this is the authentic cuisine of that country and therefore not for me, or whether it's simply a culinary offering adapted to our country.
