NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — And the James Beard Award for 2024 goes to…

It’s Dakar Nola and Chef Serigne Mbaye.

It’s the prize for Best New Restaurant.

And WGNO Good Morning New Orleans features reporter Bill Wood takes you into the kitchen of the chef behind the magic menu.

Congratulations!

Dakar NOLA is at 3814 Magazine St. in New Orleans.

On the menu, you’ll dive into dishes inspired by Serigne Mbaye’s home country.

That’s in Senegal, in West Africa.

The James Beard Awards are the highest honors for America’s hospitality business.
