Gojo, East African Cuisine in Frankfurt Germany? Who'd have thunk it?

Franhkfurt Hauptbahnhof (Main Station)
 When in Frankfurt I rarely think to my myself, "Great place to find Great Food!". While I am sure like any major metropolitan city one can find good and even great cooking. Certainly with the core of certain financial sectors here and a strong economy with a variety of industries feeding it, Frankfurt certainly must have some nice places to eat.

But as a street wanderer and not a "foodie"; this enthusiastic eater seeks out great taste and not big ticket food snobbish spots. I must say that my hopes were not high as I got off the train in Frankfurt with hopes of something tasty to eat before sacking it in for the night back at the airport. At best I have seen in this area some German cooking in the Hessian and Frankische-art (translate that as Schnitzel in creative delivery, whether it is smothered in mushrooms and gravy, Jaeger-art, or maybe in a super spicy sauce, Teufel-Schnitzel).  Even bratwursts in Frankfurt is not a high part of the food tradition in this area.



I was very happy to find a small corner awning with the words "Gojo, Ostafrikanische Restaurant" on it. While I can only pretend to speak a little German, I could recognize East and African with the word restaurant.  And that can only mean a few things, Spongy Injera Bread, Spicy meat in Berbere sauce, and deliciously flavored vegetables, beans and lentils.

Yummy, all this for 10 Euro

Moonrise Kingdom, a cozy craft beer bar in Tokyo-Shinjuku

Craft Brewing is not what normally comes to mind when people ask about Japan. They'll ask if you like raw fish (there is more to Japanese cuisine than Sashimi or Sushi), or they'll comment about Sake (there is more than just rice wine in Japan); but if you look, you will definitely find some. Our recent trip to Tokyo, this April just after the Sakura had been swept away by rain :-( we were able to find a perfectly suitable refuge for the Craft Beer Lover.  Moonrise Kingdom(via their Instagram) StringGrrl with one of the NEIPA/Hazy IPA on tap from Japanese Craft Breweries As a treat, the owners shared an American Milk Stout from Left Hand Brewing out of Colorado Local ExPat who gave up their stool to make room for StringGrrl and Kam Carryout beer from Kyoto Brewing Company, Vertere

EYWTKAMABIWRTS

everything you wanted to know about my accident but I wasn't ready to share  (u pdated 28th February. Done, gone home, Scroll to see more ) Here's the lowdown since curiosity abounds: 1) NO, I didn't have a skiing accident. I resent the implication. I owned that fucking Hill . (Family Friendly video) 2) It was a sled 🛷 . It's not an extreme sport. It's called a Rodelbahn (toboggan road) and is considered fun for the whole family. Sebastian supplied the sleds/toboggans, and after a full morning on the mountain skiing. We planned to use the few remaining hours of lift access to run the Rodelbahn. Totally reasonable. 3) The run isn't like a luge or bobsled but a trail down reasonable slopes (switchbacks adjacent to a green dot, blue square ski run) but maybe a bit narrower. Rodelbahn at Nauders 4) I think I over-steered at the exact wrong time and was catapulted into the trees, and down a steep slope, bounced off many trees, broke a few d...
