The Hot Dish Preview: 11/14/08

In tomorrow's edition of The Hot Dish, a new Ethiopian restaurant, the end of a 30-year Chinese food tradition, some awesome beer events, and a blogger talks about an anise/ouzo brewed drink creation that sounds out of this world, or at least beyond our borders.

Also, The Hot Dish checks out the upcoming 19th Annual Coffee Festival at Calhoun Square in Uptown.

“You have to realize what kind of an impact coffee has on people's lives,” says Kitchen Window owner and event sponsor Doug Huemoeller. “It's probably by far the most sought-after beverage. People have a real passion for it.”
