La Fourchette
Senegal
La Fourchette is a long-established Dakar restaurant combining a city-centre address with a bistronomy approach. Its urban interior mixes coloured details and glass with more restrained, almost unfinished surfaces, giving the dining room a contemporary character. The menu brings French-style preparations together with wider influences. Dishes have included beef or fish carpaccio and golden prawn rolls, while the dessert selection ranges from crème brûlée and pain perdu to labneh cheesecake and fruit skewers. A changing weekday lunch menu adds a shorter route through the kitchen's cooking. The restaurant belongs to Groupe La Fourchette, whose separate Alkimia venue operates in Almadies.
