The Best New Restaurant in New Orleans is Senegalese | On The Line | Bon Appetit

“The waitlist at Dakar is about 40-50 people every single day. We serve all of our guests at once so it can be a challenge.” Bon Appetit spends a day on the line with Sharena Smith, Sous Chef at Dakar NOLA in New Orleans, a Senegalese restaurant that serves a 7-course tasting menu to all its customers at once.
