Our story

A kitchen rooted in generations.

Abyssinia brings the shared culinary traditions of Ethiopia and Eritrea to Amsterdam. Our recipes celebrate slow-cooked spices, generous hospitality and the ritual of gathering around one plate.

Every main dish is enjoyed with soft injera made from 100% teff. Tear, scoop, share - no cutlery required. It is food designed to bring people closer.
