Happy Black History Month! To celebrate, I'm featuring one of my new fave Black-owned businesses in the heart of Jackson Ward. đ Buna Kurs (@bunakursrva) is an authentic Ethiopian cafe that recently opened last October in the former Saadiaâs Juicebox space. âBunaâ literally translates to coffee and âKursâ means breakfast so the menu fittingly aims to serve a bit of each! âď¸ I had a splendid experience and let me just say thereâs a reason they have a 5âď¸ Google review!
I havenât had Ethiopian food in years and had never tried Ethiopian breakfast food before so I opted for the Breakfast Combo so I could try a little bit of everything. It came with the injera fir fir (left), kinche (middle), and egg silsi (right) on a large plate with a basket of injera on the side. The egg silsi was definitely my favorite of the three and Iâve been thinking about it every day since. 𤤠It was a huge portion for the price and great for sharing with the table as well. Also pictured is the Awaze Tibs served with injera, Spiced Chai Frappe with a shot of expresso, and Shai Bekimem tea. FYI, Buna Kurs has ample options for vegetarians and vegans so check them out if that refers to you! đą
Buna Kurs is great for any scenario: you can order by phone for quick takeout, eat in for brunch with a friend, or order a coffee and get some remote work/studying done. đŠâđť The interior is comfy and quiet with tons of natural light so itâs the perfect place to âwork from home.â Overall, Buna Kurs was a great introduction to Ethiopian breakfast for me and I will surely be back soon to try a lunch sandwich or salad! đĽ
I would 100% recommend this coffee/breakfast spot to anyone open to trying nontraditional cafe fare because I promise the menu options at Buna Kurs are ones you wonât find anywhere else in Richmond (not even at other Ethiopian spots)! đ¤ŻđŻ
