Sharing is caring

A classmate of mine raved about Nazareth on Bloor. I trust his opinion on such matters, so off I went. The restaurant is tiny. Three of us got there at 5:30 and got a table after only 4 minutes, but a group of 5 was waiting for quite a while. I don't know about others' experiences at Nazareth, but I suggest that you dine there only if you have a good chunk of time to spare. The service wasn't the fastest, but we weren't in any hurry. We ordered the beef tips and the assorted vegetables. So two orders for three people was more than enough. Each person at the table gets their own injera (Ethipian crepe-like bread) with which to eat.
Beef tips on the left, veg on the right, salad in the middle.

It was so good. The meat is cut up small enough that you don't have any trouble picking it up with your piece of bread. The beef was tender and well seasoned. The veg was good too, but the beef was definitely our favourite.

The three of us ate from that big platter and I really liked that idea. We were all eating the same thing and experiencing the same flavours. Of course we all had our opinions about everything on the plate, and it was fun to get other people's take on what you're eating. I've just had an idea...there should be a scale rating how social certain foods are...popcorn 8, popsicle -1.



The meal plus three non-alcoholic drinks came to $21.78. I will definately be returning to Nazareth.
