Dakar NOLA

With roots in Harlem and Senegal, Chef Serigne Mbaye cooks from the heart and draws on flavors from across West Africa. Once a pop-up supper club, the restaurant has found a home along Magazine Street in a cottage in Uptown. Two seatings a night flow at a leisurely pace in a dining room fit with modern light fixtures, dark wood tones, and African artifacts. The tasting menu is rather steep in cost but certainly yields pleasant compositions like a finely spiced soup of okra, fish broth, and crab or Gulf fish with jollof rice, sauteed sweet potato greens, and a peppy tamarind broth. Local pottery and a host of farms supply the restaurant. Meanwhile, co-owner Dr. Afua Richardson is a steady presence and brings sincere warmth to the young service team.
