Discover Senegal Through Food

Signature Senegalese jollof chicken dish

Signature Dishes

  • Thieboudienne (Ceebu Jën / Senegalese Jollof)

    Senegal's national dish. Fragrant rice cooked with fish, vegetables, and rich tomato sauce. The dish that started it all.

  • Jollof Rice

    Available with Chicken, Lamb, or Vegan. Slow-cooked rice with tomatoes, onions, and spices — the heart of West African cooking.

  • Yassa

    Caramelized onions and tangy mustard sauce with chicken or lamb. Bold, sweet, savory — one of Senegal's most loved stews.

  • Mafé

    Rich peanut stew with lamb and vegetables. Creamy, warming, and unforgettable.

  • Tomato Stew

    Slow-cooked tomato stew with vegetables. Simple, generous, full of flavor.

  • Grilled Dibi

    Senegalese-style grilled chicken and lamb. Cooked fresh, smoky, and served hot. (Available as add-on for outdoor events)

Plantain and accara sides

Sides & Snacks

  • Fried Plantain

    Golden, crispy, and sweet. A staple of Senegalese meals.

  • Cassava Chips

    Crispy, savory, and made from cassava root.

  • Garden Salad

    Fresh greens with a light dressing.

  • Accara

    Crispy black-eyed pea fritters. Savory, spiced, addictive.

  • Fataya

    Senegalese pastries filled with fish or meat. Crispy on the outside, flavorful on the inside.

  • Beignets

    Soft Senegalese doughnuts dusted with sugar. Perfect for dessert.

Traditional bissap drink

Traditional Drinks

  • Bissap (Hibiscus Juice)

    Sweet, tart, refreshing. Made from dried hibiscus flowers.

  • Ginger Juice

    Spiced ginger drink. Bold, warming, energizing.

  • Bouyé (Baobab Juice)

    Made from baobab fruit. Creamy, tangy, and uniquely West African.
