Yolele!

Proprietor of the Le Grand Dakar restaurant Chef Pierre Thiam, has published a book which celebrates the cosmopolitan cuisine of the westernmost tip of the continent -Yolele! Recipes From the Heart of Senegal:

The recipes in this book reflect my personal odyssey,my travels through West Africa,Europe and finally here,where from my New York address I've seen the world. They showcase the repertoire of contemporary Senegalese home cook,representing a mix of the age-old (thiebou jen,spicy stuffed fish with vegetables and rice),the more modern (Vietnamese-influenced shrimp and melon salad)-Pierre Thiam
