A great thing about Chicagoland is the access we have to truly ethnic restaurants that cook truly native dishes. On 35th and King Drive, only twenty blocks from the University of Chicago Medical Center, is a Senegalese restaurant that features delicious Senegalese chicken, lamb, and vegetarian dishes. Went there last night, and the food was every bit as good as you would get in an upscale restaurant in Senegal.
If you’re ever in that area or, if you are ever at the U of C Medical Center for any reason, it’s worth the short trip in lieu of eating in any of the food choices that are in the center.
