Makina Cafe - Street Food Icons

Eden Gebre Egziabher owns and operates Makina Cafe, the first and only Eritrean and Ethiopian food truck in New York City. Driven by her passion for the foods she ate as a child growing up in Addis Ababa, Eden serves Eritrean and Ethiopian staples like injera bread, chicken and beef tibs, misir (spicy red lentils), tikel gomen (cabbage with carrots and potatoes), gomen (collard greens), and sambusas, which are similar to samosas. Eden, born and raised in Ethiopia from parents of Eritrean descent, aims to use Makina Cafe to celebrate her two countries of origin and their cuisines.

Waaaaw!

[@sumfonsamart5529]

to think of it I've never seen any women food truck owner representation in media. I had no idea, that caught me off guard, I didn't even realize how male-dominated this side of the food industry was. I hope to see more women rep and attention in this field!

[@Джулия-у9е]

But like Egyptian or Jewish people! You ❣️ like them!

[@takiichijou5249]

Ok

[@anikastarseed]

[@Джулия-у9е]

I think that the Ethiopian people are not caucasian, because there are semites people!

[@Джулия-у9е]

But not black People like African, for example, don't like Kenya or Rwanda people!

[@evs251]

Are you racist?
