Yeshi Buna started as a coffee shop (buna means coffee) but thanks to its excellent food, it now has a handful of restaurants around town. The branch near Meskel Square is situated in an old wooden house, with each of the rooms serving as a small, intimate dining room peppered with half a dozen tables. Perfect for breakfast.

In the 60s and 70s, Ethiopia became known for its own brand of jazz, but the music scene was entirely shut down during the communist regime that lasted from 1974 until the early 90s. Since then it's made a comeback, and Addis is now an excellent place to hear jazz and other live music. Check what's playing at African Jazz Village, one of the best venues in town, It is located at the Ghion Hotel which is popularly known as 'The Garden Palace Hotel of East Africa', situated in the heart of Addis Ababa in a spacious, verdant compound.

Shopping

If you'd simply like to shop for some nice wardrobe additions, Shero Meda is the best market for the gorgeous, hand-woven blankets known as gabis, and beautiful Ethiopian cotton dresses. And for a general market experience without the craziness of Merkato, Shola is a smaller, very pleasant little market offering a mix of things—food, textiles, etc.
