Our story
The art of hospitality
At 14 Rue de Lyon, La Téranga opened its doors with a simple idea: to share the cooking of our childhood, that of the great family tables of Dakar, in a warm and elegant setting in the heart of Geneva.
The founder
A family story
Our recipes come from our mothers and grandmothers. Thiéboudienne simmered for hours, yassa brightened with lemon, creamy mafé: we cook them just as at home, with patience and generosity.
Cooking means offering a little piece of home.
Our values
Generosity, authenticity, sharing
Generosity, authenticity and sharing. We select our ingredients with care, prepare our own spices and cook every dish on site.
The great family tables
Sunday Thiéboudienne, shared from one large communal dish: that is where it all begins.
Rue de Lyon
A warm café, bar and caterer, a stone’s throw from Cornavin, open to everyone in Geneva curious about new flavours.
Restaurant & catering
Contemporary Senegalese cuisine, served at the table, to take away and at your events.
Our products
