"Joloff refers to a historic West African tribe (usually spelled jollof) and its recipe for cooking rice. It’s also the name of one of the city’s oldest Senegalese restaurants, founded in 1995 by the Diagne family. Appetizers include fataya jeun (mackerel turnovers), boulettes djeun (fish balls), and nem legumes — spring rolls brought to Dakar by Vietnamese refugees in the 1950s. Main courses include dibi (lamb chops) and yassa (chicken with mustard-flavored onions)." - Robert Sietsema
