Washington DC has the largest Ethiopian population outside Addis Ababa, settled along Ninth Street NW in Shaw (Little Ethiopia) and Adams Morgan from the 1980s onward. The community arrived after the 1974 revolution; the unofficial Little Ethiopia designation came in 2005. Doro wat, the long-cooked chicken stew bronzed with berbere chili paste and niter kibbeh spiced butter, is the national dish of Ethiopia and the menu centrepiece in DC's Ethiopian rooms. It is eaten with the right hand from a shared round of injera flatbread, with a hard-boiled egg in the middle. Etete on 9th Street has run the canonical version since 2004; Dukem opened nearby in 1997.
