Named after the year the Ethiopian government sent troops to aid South Korea during the Korean War, this collaboration between the owner of Goorsha Ethiopian restaurant and the Korean family that owned Kaffeinate coffee house is an homage to friendship and resilience. This modern cafe in Golden Belt is a perfect spot to enjoy a great cup of coffee, cocktails, sandwiches and bites that bring Ethiopian and Korean flavors into everyday American food, like mango-berbere and ginger-sesame wings.

Third time eating at the establishment and will probably be my last.
First time I tried the wings, they are dry. Almost as if they are double cooked.
Second time went for dinner one evening and had the pork belly and a cheese steak sandwich. The pork belly looked like it had been deep fried for way too long. At least the sauce they give with the pork belly is pretty good, so it masked the dryness. The cheese steak sandwich was actually pretty good though. Nice thick steak that was hot and juicy.
And lastly, since I hadn't tried the burger yet I figured I would try the signature Tipsy Bull Burger. I was very disappointed. At over $18 , with fries, I feel like I was kinda robbed. The burger was about the size of a hockey puck and dry as hell.
Oh yeah, the french fries potential but the are always soggy.
The staff are friendly, but slow as molasses. -
Great atmosphere and welcoming vibe! The space feels comfortable and energetic at the same time. The drinks were well-made (I got a special made Peach Lemon Drop Martini and it was amazing!!!), and they food specials like $1 wings certain nights.
They also host game nights and events, and it looks like a fun spot for private parties or group gatherings. Definitely a solid addition to Durham’s sports bar scene — I’ll be back! -
The food was good but I would skip the dry rub wings next time and maybe just go with a sandwich. The fries were a bit off and over cooked too. But, overall good and a good option for food with a beer from high wire if you’re not in the mood for pizza. Plus, of was fun to try a pineapple ginger Jamaica sof drink :)

I had the bulgogi chicken sandwich and that was the best thing ever happened to me in a while. The right amount of sauce and just juice chicken! The way they made their fries was also great! The wings were very mediocre, however. The vibe was great so I was very surprised that the place was not busy at all on a Friday evening.

In 30 minutes you’re better off ordering 2 times from the pizzeria next door. Wings are soggy and drenched in oil and taste of dirty frying oil. French fries are soggy like noodles, drenched in oil and burnt to a brown color. Never eating here again. Slow nice service.
