Drive off-road through the sand dunes surrounding Lake Retba in a 4x4 vehicle and feast on traditional Senegalese dishes at a nearby village. As you race over the desolate, rather remote terrain where the grueling Paris-Dakar car rally once ended, the ride will be exhilarating. You can expect it to be bump, unpredictable and nonstop fun. The lake is less than a mile from the Atlantic Ocean and salt was harvested there for years until precedented flooding changed the color and composition of the water.

Your culinary instruction will begin at a local market where you will gather the necessary ingredients for Chicken Yassa, a dish popular across West Africa. The chef will show you how to pick out the freshest, most flavorful ingredients such as lemons, olives and Scotch bonnet chili peppers. Although yassa can be made with lamb and fish, it is traditionally prepared with chicken in Senegal, where this comfort food dish originated. In essence, the chicken is browned, the onions are caramelized and the other ingredients are added in stages so as not to overwhelm the flavor. For instance, the hot chili peppers are put in as the very last step. Chicken yassa is typically served with a side of steamed white rice, but the chef may have another suggestion. When the dish is ready, it will be served for lunch.
