Abyssinia cuisine at its best
GLUTEN & CARB-FREE INJERA
A tangy gluten and carb free leavened pancake, injera is used instead of a plate for serving, and instead of cutlery for grabbing and eating!
VEGETARIAN TSEBHI STEW
This Abyssinian classic is usually served as a vegetarian or vegan stew, but we also offer beef, chicken and fish for meat-lovers.
CORARIMA COFFEE ARABICA
In Abyssinian culture, coffee ceremonies are an integral part of social life and a mark of respect – share our special blend with friends.
OUR FOOD IS
GLUTEN FREE, CARB FREE, GUILT FREE
The grain we use for our food is gluten and carb free
The beauty of Abyssinian cookery is that anyone can enjoy it. We only use carb-free grains, our entire menu is gluten free, and the majority of our food is – or can be made as – vegetarian or vegan.
Our injera is made from teff (with a little rice and sorghum) which, as a ‘superfood’, is packed full of health-boosting benefits. It’s sugar-free, high in calcium, iron, protein, fibre and folic acid, and is widely recognised as being the best alternative to wheat to make gluten free breads.
So at Corarima, you get a gluten free, healthy vegetarian restaurant all rolled into one!
Corarima – your local African restaurant
Traditional Eritrean & Ethiopian Food
Our love of Abyssinian cuisine is embedded in our roots, but we developed our passion for creating authentic dishes through our extensive catering experience for friends and family.
The exquisite flavours that run through our menu are warm, spicy, smoky and delightfully distinctive. Our berbere spice mix contains many lesser-known Ethiopian spices, such as corarima, garlic, ginger, basil, rue, ajwain, nigella, fenugreek and chilli peppers – we aim for a level of heat that caters for all palette, but we’re happy to turn the chilli levels up or down at your request!
We also serve natural and herbal drinks that complement our wonderful vegetarian, gluten free Abyssinian food.
