Am curious to try some Senegalese food, and was intrigued by the descriptions i'd read about it in the past and its use of strong reddish palm oil...anyone have suggestions on where to go?</content>

      <content>AFrica on 116th is probably the most popular, and largerst senegalese restraurant in the city. 
 

Palm trees in africa produce " fruit" you can't even call it a fruit its a like a giant spiny cone with little pods called palmfruit, this is then pressed and that oil is the base for tons of west african dishes. </content>
