Where Angels Eat!

In the cozy town of Brooklyn, find this heavenly place called Ghenet that serves mouthwatering Ethiopian cuisine. Ghenet, or we call it Heaven, was founded by Yeworkwoha Ephrem.

Ephrem was born and raised in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and its diversity exposed her to an assortment of culinary techniques and flavors. The exposure and her experience want her to offer Ethiopia to her customers, representing her restaurant as a hybrid of the culture, language, art, and authentic flavors.

Ghenet is a story of her experience and discoveries. She has visited the four corners of the world- lived in the Middle East, traveled across Asia, Europe, and South America, which adds to her experience, inspiration, and artistry.

Ephrem celebrated the flavors of New York by discovering the spice markets in little India, meat market that used to be on the West Side, Veniero’s for pastries, Katz for pastrami, and running to Astoria for authentic Gyros.
