Lalibela
This shop just north of the Overtoom was the Netherlands' first Ethiopian restaurant, and it's still our favourite. Aksumite-hide paintings with Christian motifs hang on the walls. You can drink Ethiopian beer from a half-gourd, and taste your stews, egg and vegetable dishes using endjera, a spongy pancake, instead of utensils. Trippy African music rounds out the experience.

Mamouche
Mamouche gets serious acclaim for modern Moroccan amid minimalism. Exposed flooring, mottled walls and slat-beam ceilings complement the changing selection of couscous, lamb and fish dishes. Check out the brass fixtures in the loo - if you can find it. Reservations are a must.

Paloma Blanca
The name is Spanish, but the lanterns, dishware and mosaic-top tables are straight out of a Marrakech souk. Try the starter of olives and brik (spicy tuna spread), mains of couscous and tajine (Moroccan stew) or mixed grills of spicy sausage, lamb cutlets and chicken. It's the only place in town to cook with smet, a specially aged butter.
