Ras Plant Based
Description
The vegan Ethiopian fare at this hip Crown Heights restaurant is as vibrant as the oversize murals plastering the walls. The owners, Romeo and Milka Regalli, have updated their grandparents’ recipes, using organic local ingredients wherever possible. Unfurl the spongy, slightly sour injera bread rolls to scoop up spicy red lentil stew, creamy ground chickpeas and a blend of peppers, cabbage, carrots and onions, among the five multicolored mounds included in the Mercato platter. The friendly bar scene showcases a wide variety of drinks to match the food.
