Le Baobab Gouygui

The 8 Best Dishes We Tried In July - New York - The Infatuation

"A spread of mafe, chicken yassa, and thieboudienne The second location of Le Baobab, one of the best Senegalese restaurants in Harlem, is a great place to pick up lamb and fish in okra-thickened palm oil sauce, fish balls stewed in tomato sauce, and more. The one dish that you need to prioritize, though, is lamb mafe, which has a ton of peanut butter flavor, along with the smokiness of a chargrilled lamb chop. We also love their thieboudienne for its crispy, salty skin, and their tender chicken yassa smothered in a lemony, onion-heavy sauce. There isn’t much room to sit down inside, so we suggest grabbing a to-go order and walking over to Herbert Van King Park for a picnic." - team infatuation
