• DoorDash ordernormally the Lamb Tibs s with the gluten-free teff Teff Injera Sub is my absolute favorite dish. I like it spicy. unfortunately my order came with what looks like part gluten free and part not gluten free bread tonight. but doesn't change that I'll order from them again. if you haven't had it before and need gluten free, the bread should be a darker color for the Teff Injera Sub
