Gorée Cuisine
Senegalese
This deeply inviting Kenwood culinary gem serves beautifully executed traditional Senegalese recipes on the South Side. The kitchen treats patrons late into the night with iconic thiebou djen (savory fish and seasoned rice) and ultra-tender lamb dibi grilled with onions. The interior features rich African art and relaxing music — a stellar location for a low-key weekend dinner date with remarkable depth of flavor in every slow-simmered dish.
