Saraba is the first Senegalese restaurant/bar in Japan. It is located in jyugaoka and the owner is Senegalese.
I was very happy to go and discover this new place because I always wanted a Senegalese Restaurant to open.
The place is small but the atmosphere is very relaxed and nice and the food is very Senegalese!
The owner, Amadou Tounkara, is an artist, a painter and a textile designer. He is very cool and cooks great food!
I decided to make my documentary on him because I thought it was interesting to introduce him to you and see how Senegalese culture is intergrating into the Japanese society.
In this bar, there are a lot of foreigners and Japanese people who come and discuss about several aspects and exchange their personal thoughts.
Amadou says that his favourite moment in the bar is when people gather together and communicate. Saraba is a very social community which is very peaceful!!!
If you want to experience Senegalese food and interact with Senegalese people, please step by in jyugaoka and enjoy this new culture!!!
