  • Recently went to ALPS, a fantastic Ethiopian restaurant in Holborn (42 Theobald Road WC1X 8NW). For an adventurous culinary experience full of varied tastes and textures. Being a Londoner there are few flavours and cuisines I have not experienced, but the dishes served by this kitchen were really impressive. Often served by the gently spoken chef who takes time to explain to the uninitiated, the traditions behind each dish and also the traditional way to eat them. This was a really engaging way to have dinner, everyone loved the food and was thrilled by the level of service and attention to detail of the dishes. Also great vegetarian option. If you are not familiar with Ethiopian food let the staff guide you, the £10 a head option to be served a variety of many dishes left everyone very satisfied! Very reasonably priced.
